Published by Poliform, the Dalila Outdoor Beige chair reintroduces the expressive and sculptural world imagined by Gaetano Pesce in a version designed for outdoor spaces. A true manifest piece, it transforms the outdoor seating into an architectural and artistic element, where matter, light, and form interact boldly. With its unique look and bright beige hue, Dalila Outdoor brings a strong and refined presence to terraces, patios, contemporary dining spaces or high-end hospitality projects, while maintaining a great fluidity of integration in different outdoor environments. The Dalila Outdoor chair stands out for its sculptural and organic silhouette that reflects all the creative freedom inherent in the work of Gaetano Pesce. His expressive drawing plays on full and empty to create a subtle balance between visual lightness and assertive character. Designed for outdoor use, it combines resistance, comfort and manufacturing quality in a contemporary style that goes beyond the simple function to become a real staging element of the space. True to the designer’s experimental and emotional approach, Dalila Outdoor enriches interior projects with its strong personality and artistic dimension while offering a welcoming and convivial sitting experience. This iconic piece fits both around an outdoor dining table and in sophisticated relaxation areas, bringing an immediately recognizable identity to contemporary outdoor compositions.

Architect and designer Gaetano Pesce has designed public and private projects in the United States, Europe, Latin America and Asia. His work expresses his guiding principle: modernism is less a style than a method of interpreting the present and alluding to the future, in which individuality is preserved and celebrated. Born in La Spezia, Italy, in 1939, Pesce studied architecture at the University of Venice and was a member of Gruppo N, one of the first groups interested in programmed art based on the Bauhaus model. He taught architecture at the Institut d'Architecture et d'Etudes Urbaines in Strasbourg, France, for 28 years, at Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, at the Domus Academy in Milan, at the Polytechnic in Hong Kong, at the School of Architecture in Sao Paulo and at the Cooper Union in New York, where he has lived since 1980, having previously lived in Venice, London, Helsinki and Paris. Pesce's works are included in the permanent collections of the world's most important museums, including the MoMa in New York and San Francisco, the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Vitra Museum in Germany, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Centre Pompidou and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs du Louvre in Paris. Gaetano Pesce has received numerous awards, including the prestigious Chrysler Award for Innovation and Design in 1993, the Wohnen Architect and Designer of the Year Award in 2006 and the Lawrence J. Israel Award from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York in 2009.
