A trip to Marbella: Paola Navone's vision for Baxter's new outdoor collection

In the Manila and Manao chair collections, crafted from reed—a lightweight, flexible, and sustainable material—we encounter the enchanting essence of tropical rainforests.

The Panama Bold seats seem to float in the ocean, resembling islands in their ethereal presence. They boast a generous and modular design, with frames crafted from Ocoumè, a light and durable African wood.

Fellini's Rimini imbues the collection, named after the renowned city in Romagna, with the essence of a place so iconic, it encapsulates the story of Italian summers.

The materials—whether natural like terracotta, lava stone, and marble, metallic such as verdigris acid-etched copper, wood, or luxurious Baxter leather for upholstery—echo the designer's affinity for primitive materials that evoke a deep, ancestral connection to their origins.

The colors and coverings, reflecting the designer's character, take center stage with their bold, strong presence, embodying a spirit of exploration and research. Take, for instance, the new camouflage pattern and Camo Vert color, which, in the designer's own words, represent "an idea of a map that you can look at from afar, like looking at the earth and seeing continents where you can’t tell where the water is and where the earth is.”

The spacious, cozy, and comfortable design sets the perfect scene for get-togethers, creating spaces where people can enjoy each other's company.

With the Outdoor and Open Air collections, Baxter draws a distinction between durable products designed for fully exposed outdoor settings and products tailored for spaces that exist outdoors yet remain sheltered under cover, blurring the boundary between indoor and outdoor living. Both lines seamlessly complement Baxter's indoor collection.
