STYLE ALERT: RAUSCH’S PLATFORM DOCKS ON OUR SHORES

Our winter days are getting warmer, granted some are warmer than others, but sunshine is still sunshine. In that same spirit of craving more warmth I thought I would bring you something fabulous to look forward to. Something to warm your décor loving bones. Do the keywords outdoor and furniture bring a smile to your face?

I keep telling you that you have a friend in me. See, I understand that when you dream of the coming warm months you rarely dream about them in your current outdoor space – that moment of weakness you experience when your first flowers start blooming doesn’t count. Mobelli, importers, distributors and leaders in design-led outdoor furniture are bringing you something to add onto your sunshine, fresh air and Mojito (hey, there’s lemon in them) fantasy. The very real arrival of the Rausch Platform in South Africa is something to dream about.

Renowned German manufacturer Rausch manufactures the L-shaped Platform lounge set, which is all about comfort and is luxury all the way. Made from glass fibre and Kevlar, which is a staple in yacht construction, the platform has great longevity.

While we are speaking of yachts, let me mention that I think there’s no better day to write about outdoor furniture. Today, the 4^th of July is the pinnacle of the Northern Hemisphere/American Summer. Even if people are not in the Hamptons and are taking in the sights and sailing their yachts in the banks of the Mediterranean, the blue of the sea and sky against the white of the yacht (let’s call it the Bebe)… The waves and Bebe look a little like this:

You can dress the Platform up with eclectic scatter cushions and bright throws or dress it down with the customised cushions that are made to fit the outdoor climate that come with it. I don’t imagine that anyone would want a braai stand anywhere near this beauty.

Do I have you in the mood for outdoor yet?
