Nido Seat

Nido Seat is an innovative outdoor lounge chair that exemplifies the harmonious fusion of comfort, aesthetics, and minimalist design principles. Conceived by designer Lodovico Bernardi, this sophisticated seating solution draws inspiration from traditional Italian beach sun-loungers while elevating the concept through refined materials and contemporary styling. The chair's distinctive structure features a frame crafted from thick aluminum tubes, ingeniously welded and brushed at a single point, creating a visually striking yet structurally sound foundation. The seating surface comprises hand-woven soft stripes threaded through a framework of thin aluminum tubes, delivering both visual lightness and ergonomic support. With dimensions of 113cm in depth, 87cm in height, and 65cm in width, the Nido Seat is thoughtfully proportioned for optimal relaxation in outdoor settings. The design philosophy centers on the visualization of comfort and wellbeing, emphasizing leisure as a holistic experience where visual appeal plays an integral role. The chair's minimalist approach to structural elements, combined with sophisticated material choices and outdoor-resistant powder-coated finishes, creates an iconic aesthetic that earned recognition with a Bronze A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category, acknowledging its excellence in combining innovative design with practical functionality.
