Solstice, Bentley Home’s first-ever outdoor furniture collection, celebrates the sublime experience of open-air living, using materials, motifs and shapes that can be found in Bentley cars and translating them into exquisite furniture creations.
The creation of Solstice is no easy feat. Bentley Home designer Carlo Colombo has worked closely with designers at Bentley Motors to incorporate the luxury motor brand's DNA into furniture pieces that appear elegant in outdoor settings and under natural light while utilising weather-proof materials.
Each design from the collection can be personalised with a broad choice of fabric and covering options. Velvet, chenille and satin have been treated especially for outdoor use, following sophisticated research into each of the luxurious textiles.
A key design feature of the collection is the "super-mirror" steel detail, inspired by the front matrix grille of Bentley’s modern car line-up, including the Continental, Bentayga and Flying Spur ranges. It refers to the high level of polish that is applied to the stainless steel, a beautiful and unique effect.
Wrapping around the Solstice Sofa, Armchair and Pouf, each individual super-mirror slat is curved to follow the outline of the backrests, using a sophisticated cutting system. The super-mirror steel grille detail has a delicate lightness consistent with the upholstered leather and fabric elements of the furniture designs.
The Solstice Coffee Table and Side Table also feature the super-mirror grille, revealing its dual structure and decorative function. Elegant, round marble tops are available in a choice of Mont Blanc, Silk Brown, or Emerald Green, to stylishly finish each table. Meanwhile, the Solstice Sunbed is lightweight and comfortable.
