Desert Modern: The Parker Collection
Inspired by the iconic Mid-Century aesthetic of 1950s Palm Springs, the Parker Collection reimagines retro-modern luxury for contemporary outdoor living. This striking line marries modernist design’s clean silhouettes with today's performance materials, creating outdoor furniture that feels both nostalgically familiar and refreshingly current.

Mid-Century Reimagined
The Parker Collection pays homage to the golden era of desert modernism with thoughtful design elements that capture Palm Springs' enduring allure. Tubular bronze aluminium frames create architectural presence with remarkable lightness, while thick strapping elements provide visual interest and practical comfort. Plus, refined contrast piping delivers a sophisticated and unusual finishing touch.

Signature Elements
The Parker Collection is defined by a blend of retro elements and innovative materials. The alternating pattern of the strapping—expertly interwoven into each seat—becomes a signature design detail. This modern interpretation of suspension seating creates a gentle give that enhances comfort without sacrificing structure.
The collection's low, clean profiles echo the horizontal lines of desert modernism, creating pieces that appear to float above their surroundings—perfect for contemporary architectural spaces or as a curated counterpoint to more traditional settings.
Technical Excellence
The Parker Collection demonstrates our commitment to engineering excellence. Each frame is crafted from high-quality extruded aluminium with AkzoNobel® European powder coating in our signature Bronze finish. This superior coating process ensures exceptional weather resistance while maintaining the collection's sophisticated aesthetic. Custom finishes in Asteroid, Bone, Taupe, or White are also available to complement any outdoor environment.
The collection's cushions represent the pinnacle of outdoor comfort innovation. Featuring quick-dry flow-through foam technology and premium Dacron wrap, they deliver remarkable comfort while standing up to outdoor conditions. Upholstered in Riviera Stone with contrast piping in Panama Coco, these fabrics hail from Italy's Mario Sirtori line and feature a distinctive knubby texture reminiscent of luxe bouclé or terry cloth—yet engineered specifically for outdoor durability.
