OH, IT RAINS! 2 seater fabric garden sofa

The very first collaboration between B&B Italia and Philippe Starck leads to the birth of a sofa and an armchair, both with impressive dimensions and a highly scenographic presence, that surprisingly combine an unusual shape and an unexpected function, with a name that really attracts attention.‎ Oh, it rains! is a piece of considerable impact, destined to last over time and to be talked about, but also to be used in the most unexpected ways and contexts.‎ Philippe Starck started his research for this project by going back to the origins of outdoor furniture, that of nomads and soldiers: desert tents and field equipment, colonial colors and very light materials, essential shapes with functions connected with rapid action.‎ We notice Oh, it rains! right away for its large backrest.‎ It isn’t a simple decorative element, though.‎ It acts like a wall or a partition to create an intimate and private setting, and, when necessary, it folds down on top of the seat and - voilà - the seat and cushions are covered and protected.‎ Colours and materials go hand in hand with the initial concept and the collection introduces colonial shades and raffia-effect waterproof fabrics.‎ The backrest is proposed as a surface to be personalized through the choice and combination of fabrics.‎ The collection is enhanced by optional cushions that guarantee extra comfort and a dynamic look to this large object, suitable for private settings and also for outdoor areas in hotels and lounge.‎ From a technical standpoint, the backrest is made with a double layer of water-repellent fabric, which makes it 100% waterproof.‎ For this reason Oh, it rains! can be covered with any type of outdoor fabric present in the B&B Italia collection.‎ It is also possible to choose the version with a side table integrated into the structure, available in natural teak wood or Mediterranean stone.‎ Technical information Frame: aluminium Upholstery: shaped polyurethane, cover in water repellent polyester fibre Small t
