Simplicity is often deceptive—seemingly straightforward (even easy) from the outside, yet incredibly difficult to get right. Working with a single material—powder-coated steel—and just two applications—sheet and tube—nonconformist French furniture producer Tiptoe has developed the multipronged PANORAMA collection. The outdoor line now includes a lounge chair, bench, low table, and stool.
With the full gamut—plus the preexisting outdoor table and chair—Tiptoe applies a consistent structural logic across six products, flexing its industrial expertise through precisely cut, folded, and formed metal. These elegantly light yet sturdy armatures may appear effortless, but they are the result of rigorous refinement: calibrating proportions, resolving ergonomic dimensions, and fully leveraging the material’s inherent properties. The finishing touch? Five new colorways: Soleil Yellow, Brick Red, Graphite Black, Forest Green, and Chalky Grey.
These “spring” tones—exuberant yet measured—are carefully attuned to a range of natural settings, complementing the hues and textures of re-emerging flowerbeds, bristling wetland grasses, pebble-strewn shores, and lengthening sunsets. The pieces blend in while subtly standing out, achieving a quiet visual balance. Lightweight and easily repositioned, they offer a high degree of versatility.
PANORAMA furnishings can be arranged in near-endless configurations. The bench supports moments of repose while encouraging social interaction, while the stool functions equally well as a side table or standalone seat. Anchoring the collection, the outdoor table is now available in 90×90, 130×80, and 160×80 cm formats. Here, the system’s defining curvature is most fully expressed—standing in for a draped tablecloth and seamlessly integrated into the object’s form.
From a sustainability standpoint, the designs are highly durable and weather-resistant, ensuring longevity. Their understated, universal language also resists the pull of passing trends. Steel itself—at least in Europe, where all Tiptoe products are manufactured—is now composed of up to 80% recycled content.
