Chiampo, Vicenza, Italy
Nardi’s Doga is the new outdoor furniture collection consisting of chairs with and without armrests, a lounge chair, and a monobloc low table made of fiberglass resin, all inspired by a slatted design, given a contemporary twist by designer Raffaello Galiotto.
The design has been awarded a 2021 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Strikingly outdoorsy in both aesthetic appeal and functionality, Doga is ideal for all outdoor spaces, both at home and in the contract sector.
The collection is handy to move, stackable, easily sanitized, and entirely recyclable.
The seating collection features an open pattern, an interplay of open and closed spaces punctuated by a sequence of horizontal slats.
The design of the collection is based on a cylindrical shape featured throughout the frame and sectioned for the slats.
Each slat is a kind of half-cylinder resting on the frame and connected thanks to sophisticated 3D modeling software, which has led to a pleasant effect of visual and tactile softness.
Extensive research has introduced a color range that opens up new scenarios.
It adapts to various contexts, in which the collection can be the protagonist.
Doga comes in eternally sophisticated white for more relaxing and romantic spaces; anthracite and tobacco for more industrial and urban settings; warm shades of cappuccino for blending in with historical contexts, and marsala for those who want a touch of original eccentricity.
Ever-present green shades such as mint, pear, and agave are available for more natural environments.
The collection will also be enhanced by a wide selection of cushions in matching colors.
