Woogmaster’s Italy-Inspired Outdoor Furniture Is a Retreat Itself

Nov 04, 2024

When it comes to idyllic outdoor living, Italy’s picturesque coastlines and lakefront vistas often come to mind and offer timeless inspiration for creating a luxurious home retreat. This vision is now more accessible through the latest collaboration between Las Vegas-based Alex Woogmaster of Woogmaster Studio and heritage furniture brand Walters Wicker. Drawing from the Italian coastline, Woogmaster introduces two collections, Avant and Varenna, that bring the essence of a vacation to your outdoor spaces. “We regularly design custom furniture in our projects, and it’s exciting to see Varenna and Avant join the esteemed line of Walters products. We hope the function and beauty of these furnishings make them a great success,” reflects Woogmaster.

The Avant collection takes its name from the Italian word for “Forward,” reflecting its modern, streamlined design. This architectural series includes a chaise lounge, along with coordinating coffee and side tables. The collection’s angled frames allow for easy stacking, and their lightweight construction enhances versatility and ease of use. With sleek, minimalist silhouettes, Avant pieces can stand alone or seamlessly blend with other outdoor furnishings, including those from the Varenna series.

Inspired by the classic elegance of Northern Italian lakeside villas, the Varenna series offers a contemporary twist on traditional forms. This fully upholstered collection features a three-seat sofa, lounge chair, ottomans, dining chairs, bar and counter stools, and a chaise lounge. The refined metal frames and tapered legs support plush seating, while armrests with unique curved details add a distinctive touch that sets Varenna apart.

Both the Avant and Varenna collections are available in standard black and white powder-coated aluminum, with options for custom colors to suit your aesthetic. The Varenna series also offers upholstery choices from Giati Elements or allows for customers’ own materials, providing a tailored approach to outdoor comfort.
