The New Outdoor Room | Casarredo

In South Africa, outdoor living is part of everyday life, so it makes sense that patios, balconies & courtyards are beginning to receive the same attention as the rooms inside the home. Comfortable seating, proper dining areas & beautiful materials are moving outdoors, creating spaces for long lunches, afternoons by the pool & evenings spent with friends. For Casarredo, this approach creates an outdoor room that feels like a natural extension of the home.

In steps Chloe…

Casarredo brings this approach to outdoor living through Harbour Outdoor, with the Chloe Aluminium collection offering both dining & lounge pieces that can be combined to suit different spaces. From a smaller balcony or courtyard to a large poolside terrace, the collection allows each outdoor area to be planned around how it will actually be used.

The Chloe range has a softness that feels closer to interior furniture than traditional outdoor seating. Its curved aluminium frames wrap around deep cushions & relaxed back pillows. At the same time, the warm Bronze finish gives the metal a richer quality. Across both the dining & lounge settings, the same design language continues, allowing separate areas to feel connected without simply repeating the same pieces.

Behind that softer appearance is a careful choice of all-weather materials. High-quality extruded aluminium keeps the frames strong, lightweight & resistant to outdoor conditions, with a European powder-coated finish helping to protect against corrosion & rust. Outdoor performance fabrics are selected to handle sun, moisture, mildew & staining, while quick-drying foam allows water to move through the cushions instead of remaining trapped inside. Even the softer finishing layers are designed with outdoor use in mind, bringing the comfort expected from an indoor sofa to a piece made to live outside.

Natural travertine introduces another layer through the dining & coffee tables, with variations in colour, texture & veining giving each surface its own character. The stone is treated with a protective seal to make it better suited to outdoor use. Casarredo’s approach to the outdoor room brings these materials together to create a cohesive and comfortable setting.

The result is an outdoor space that does not feel secondary to the home. It is simply another room, made for the South African way of living.
