Parterre: Showcasing European Design for 20 Years

Having procured the agencies for luxury designers and manufacturers Royal Botania, Gandia Blasco, Domani and Slide Design, Parterre has expanded from its original home in Sydney’s Woollahra to Surry Hills and Fortitude Valley in Brisbane.

Royal Botania - a luxury Belgian manufacturer - is now regarded as one of Europe’s leading designers of outdoor furniture. The comfortable chairs and relaxing sun lounges are beautifully crafted for Australia’s relaxed lifestyle and are well suited to our coastal climate. The range of outdoor furniture includes tables that extend to seat 8 to 14 people, making them ideal for alfresco dining; ergonomic chairs and sun lounges made of marine grade stainless steel and mesh; stainless steel and teak market umbrellas featuring an ingenious mobile stand; and the sumptuous Kokoon daybed, with its large hammock strung between four massive poles.

The Gandia Blasco range of outdoor furniture and accessories are from Spain, and reflect an avant garde and luxurious Mediterranean attitude; and include tables, chairs, recliners and modular lounges made of aluminium and polyethylene. Sunlounges and low tables moulded in polyethylene and fibreglass are some of the newest innovations, and extravagant daybeds combine aluminium with the comfort of cushioning and privacy blinds.

Through their use of innovative design and interesting materials Domani have attracted world-wide recognition for their range of planters, furniture and objects. Colour, texture, and shape are explored through their collection of zinc, copper, resin, bronze and ceramic pieces.

Slide Design, of Italian origin, is witty and original. Their furniture and lighting have a light-hearted appeal.
