Cabanna

Cabanna began its activities importing outdoor furniture. As of 2015, the company started to manufacture its own furniture pieces. Such unique designs have been showcased in top tier decoration fairs and events, such as Casa Cor, Casa Caras, and even internationally in Milan, Italy. In addition to its in-house design studio, Cabanna partnered with world class renowned designers who collaborated to create a global identity which led to exports to other countries. Everything we do is always in line with our core values of respecting the environment and keeping our social responsibility.

 

ABOUT PRODUCT

The GAIA collection was created with products that show sophistication with great simplicity. Simplicity is in the construction of structures, offering visual, aesthetic and ergonomic lightness. With only two opposite parts mirrored, you get the backrest and arms of each product, coated in paint electrostatic and nautical rope. The sophistication is in the handcrafted Macramé weave of the backrest, which is always visible. The Macramé is a traditional embroidery technique, transmitted to the manual weaving of furniture. As same profile design, the line unfolds into a chair, armchair and swing/suspended armchair, to flexibly suit various indoor and outdoor environments.
