Philía

Designed by Odo Fioravanti for Pedrali, Philía is a collection of outdoor seating reminiscent of the traditional Italian garden chairs. It recalls a relaxed lifestyle in open air, typical of the Italian “dolce vita” of the sixties. The side chair and armchair are defined by their rational and geometric lines that blend with softer forms typical of the human body.

Philía is characterized by a steel tubular frame, while its seat and backrest are wrapped in a PVC cord, textured with lines, that, thanks to horizontal weaving, intersects at the centre to ensure elasticity and high resistance.

On the occasion of Salone del Mobile Milano 2025, Pedrali also introduced the Philía barstool. Available in two different heights, the barstool features the same resistant steel tubular frame and PVC cord-wrapped seat.

The hand-made weave gives softness and comfort to the seat, as well as a tailor-made look. The frame and weave can be specified in either one colour or two tones, presented in warm shades that blend easily into natural landscapes.
