The Tropicalia Collection was introduced by Moroso in 2008, the design of which starts off from the same structure as the Antibodi collection, though using weaving techniques. It is another testimate to the creative genius of Patricia Urquiola.

The collection comprises a chaise lounge, armchair, chair, outdoor bed, swinging nest….

The design envisages a tubular steel structure with complex geometrical shapes, embellished with a clever weft of threads that alternate solids and voids to a specific pattern, paying meticulous attention to detail. Each object in the collection takes on a different personality depending on the material and the colour used. It can be made playful and cheerful by using thermoplastic polymer threads free of heavy metal and recyclable, sophisticated and precious by using leather, simple and elegant by using HT polyester double plaited cords in either one or two colours.

The coloured versions are made using three threads combining different colors and creating interesting colour mixes.

Only the varnished version with polyester double plaited cords are suitable for outdoor use.
