In 1966, Richard Schultz designed an outdoor collection at the request of Florence Knoll who, after retiring, wanted furniture that could withstand the Florida climate. Since then, it has been viewed as the first collection of modern outdoor furniture and has become a benchmark in this category. The 1966 collection notably includes wide and very comfortable chairs and armchairs made of aluminium and coated mesh. These chairs have a simple and timeless design that makes them easy to incorporate into your garden or on a balcony.
