Kartell’s HIRAY Outdoor Furniture for Summer

With summer on the way, attention naturally turns to the spaces just beyond the back door. Patios, balconies and terraces come back into play, and a few well-chosen pieces can be all it takes to get them ready for the months ahead with Kartell HIRAY outdoor furniture.

Kartell’s new HIRAY collection, designed by Ludovica Serafini and Roberto Palomba, brings a clean, contemporary approach to outdoor furniture, using welded metal wire to create pieces that feel structured yet visually light.

The design is deliberately simple. Slender metal lines form the framework of each piece, creating a graphic silhouette while leaving plenty of open space between them. It gives the furniture an architectural quality without making it feel heavy – particularly useful on smaller balconies and terraces, where bulky furniture can quickly dominate.

There is plenty of choice within the collection, too. HIRAY includes a chair, small armchair, armchair, sofa, side table and tables, making it possible to put together anything from a compact spot for two to a larger setting for summer lunches and evenings with friends.

The armchair and sofa lend themselves to more relaxed arrangements, while the dining pieces can be mixed to suit the size and layout of the space. Available in white, Bordeaux, black and green, the collection also offers an easy way to introduce colour outdoors. Green can sit comfortably among planting, while Bordeaux brings a richer, less expected note to a patio or terrace.

Metal is also an important material in Kartell’s ongoing efforts to make its catalogue greener, adding a sustainability consideration to the collection’s design.

Simple, versatile and easy to combine, HIRAY offers a useful starting point for getting outdoor spaces ready for summer, whether that means a city balcony, a garden terrace or somewhere in between. Kartell HIRAY outdoor furniture provides a lightweight, contemporary option for creating these outdoor settings.
