Caselle di Altivole (TV), Italy
Product designers Forsix collaborate with Gaber and create the Doge and Podio sun-lounger collections, born from the need to enhance outdoor environments with an innovative, contemporary, and simple design.
The result obtained is quite stunning: the surface dedicated to relaxation turns out to be clean and floating, suspended in mid-air, minimizing volumes.
The project has been awarded a 2020 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Steel, aluminum, and techno-polymer, used in a correct balance thanks to the state-of-the-art technology, have created products of extreme lightness and manageability, as well as being supremely resistant and durable.
These sunbeds are equipped with backrests adjustable to 5 positions and practical castors for easy transport; Doge and Podio also stack compactly, which helps in terms of transport as well as reducing the necessary storage space.
The Doge sun-bed uses high-strength techno-polymer on the relaxation surface that can withstand intensive use.
The blend of polymers guarantees great flexibility of the surface, which, adapting ergonomically to body shapes, remains comfortable even without cushions, in addition to assuring breathability and allowing moisture and water to escape, avoiding stagnant deposits.
The material used is ant tear, resistant to salt, UV rays, atmospheric agents, and swimming pool chlorine.
