B&B Italia Outdoor
Softcage Sofa
B&B Italia revisits the past with the new Softcage outdoor collection, which is inspired by a 1975 project by Mario Bellini, whose avant-garde vision opened new horizons in the use of rattan as a valuable material for furnishings, combining bold shapes and a timeless elegance. Today this iconic concept is reinterpreted through B&B Italia's lens of innovation to give life to a collection that preserves the magic of hand-crafted rattan and blends it with contemporary aesthetics. This new interpretation offers an unparalleled experience of comfort and style for outdoor spaces thanks to a highly sophisticated cage structure composed of 45 mm sections and 18 mm rods. The load-bearing structure boasts gentler and more ergonomic shapes thanks to the base under the seat and the backrest, both inclined and suspended. The new collection consists of a sofa in two sizes and an armchair, all with a rattan structure offered in different colours. The range of colours and fabrics allows you to personalize outdoor spaces with a touch of elegance and functionality.

Mario Bellini
Mario Bellini was born in Milan in 1935 and graduated in architecture from the Politecnico di Milano in 1959. Chief design consultant to Olivetti from 1963 to 1991, he founded Studio Bellini in 1973, edited Domus from 1986 to 1991 and since 1980 has worked mainly in architecture. He has won eight Compasso d’Oro awards, and MoMA, which holds 25 of his works, gave him a retrospective in 1987.
For B&B Italia he designed the Camaleonda sofa in 1970 and Le Bambole in 1972, both since reissued, as well as the Vol Au Vent chair and Gli Scacchi side tables.
