Many people equate outdoor luxury furniture with summer—but alas, there are those of us who love to lounge in winter! Ethimo celebrates the winter outdoor experience with its Mountain collections, designed for high altitude in high style.

Grand Life by Christophe Pillet

Go for a swim in a heated pool at the base of the Dolomites, Alps, or Rocky Mountains. Then you can towel off and recline in any of the pieces of the Grand Life collection. Designed with “exceptionally welcoming ergonomics,” Grand Life offers relaxing comfort with its Lounge Armchair, Bergère, XL Sofa, and Sunbed.

Allaperto Mountain by Matteo Thun & Antonio Rodriguez

Allaperto Mountain oozes a laid-back feeling, especially the Lounge Armchair and Lounge Bed, which invite contemplation. Made of pickled teak and metal with braided Etwick fiber upholstery, the furniture is durable, “even in the coldest of locations.”

Take in the sublime landscape in the Allaperto Swing. Available in single and double versions, this oscillating seat may even lull you into a meditative state.

The Allaperto Mountain collection includes a Tartan upholstery that makes me long for an afternoon in front of the fire reading Proust. If anyone has an empty chalet in Switzerland, let me know—I can wax poetic about it!

Knit by Patrick Norguet

Knit echoes the soft chunky texture of a handmade sweater. Ethimo describes the collection rhapsodically: “In a perfect equilibrium of shape and texture that conveys fascinating tactile and visual perceptions, the Knit collection offers a vison of outdoor living that is always dynamic and contemporary.”

Two beloved pieces, the High Back Lounge Armchair and its twin Rocking Chair, invite people to enter their own dimension inside an enveloping cocoon.
