The key to Paola Lenti’s products lies in her own uniquely developed materials. Equally important is a bold and harmonious colour palette that has evolved over time, intuitively and through practice. By experimenting with and exploring modern technical possibilities, she has pursued her goal of breaking traditional boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. Through this research, they have created exclusive materials with a recognisable signature, resistant to sunlight, rain, and pool water. In doing so, she has transformed the nature of rugs and soft furnishings, allowing these delicate and valuable items to be used outdoors.
Turning the pages of the catalogue, we discover new landscapes where opposites complement one another: past and present, indoors and outdoors, tradition and technology.
Material matters
The production process combines tradition and craftsmanship with the most modern industrial and technical solutions. Both tradition and technology carry important values, and their integration strengthens each. Most of the products are the result of this collaboration. Within this fusion we find contrasting situations, where durable metal structures are combined with naturally treated wood, elegant hand-crocheted floral rugs are created from high-tech synthetic materials, and classic indoor furniture coexists with equally refined outdoor collections. Everything is created within a coherent style, where nothing is accidental and everything feels natural.
Harmonious products
Paola Lenti does not create collections in the usual sense. Instead, she seeks to build an alphabet from which everyone can choose the pieces that fit their lifestyle and combine them freely. All her products are timeless in quality, functionality, colour, and aesthetics. The forms are extremely simple and unpretentious, prioritising quality, durability, and functionality. She creates products that are rationally necessary and that outlive all fashions and trends, serving us elegantly and discreetly. Product development and improvement never come at the expense of the surrounding world or quality of life.
Furniture that values the human being
We should consider natural and self-evident what we often treat today as a luxury: having free time, spending it outdoors in nature, enjoying peace without worry or haste. This is a dream many people today hold—often unspoken—but it should be a natural part of life. Paola Lenti bases her product development on this dream and strives to create environments that support it. The focus is always the human being, and the products created are not sculptures but functional objects that serve us elegantly and discreetly. They respect the environment into which they are placed. The furniture is never meant to dominate, nor should it diminish the value of its surroundings. Product development and refinement never occur at the expense of the world around us or our quality of life. Every innovation is thorough and extends even to previously created products. Thus, they never become outdated and always fit naturally with newer creations. No product is ever truly final; it is essential that all products evolve at the same pace, becoming a unified whole—a cohesive style that expresses empathy between nature and the objects.
