TheUrbanative's metal outdoor collection is a love letter to the outdoor furniture of the 80s and 90s that's present in many summer memories.
A few years in the making, TheUrbanative’s outdoor collection has finally made its debut. Its furniture pieces borrow from past collections, summer memories, and time spent sitting on steel and wire mesh chairs. It’s a love letter in a sense to the outdoor furniture of the 80s and 90s. The contemporary African furniture and product design brand based in South Africa leans on this approach for all of their pieces, sharing and retelling stories while hoping to create new ones.

Using a juxtaposition of abstracted African cultural inspiration with the functionality, look, and feel of modern materials, technologies, and silhouettes, their new offerings are ready to be lived with. The outdoor collection includes a sofa, pod chair, lounge chair, cafe chair, cafe table, nesting tables, planters, and an outdoor mat. The Pumzika couch and Akaya Lounge Chair are soft and inspired, while the Wambo Pod is a fun yet functional addition. The Akaya Cafe Chair is a reworking of the Akaya Lounge Chair that pairs perfectly with the Bambanani Cafe Table.
