kettalpark life
Kettal Park Life is Jasper Morrison's complete outdoor family on aluminum frames, with seats and backs in Porotex fabric. Chairs, sofas and a lounger sit alongside tables in stone, marble and aluminum. It is aluminum outdoor furniture planned for a long service life, light enough to carry and made to stack when the season ends.

made to stack and store
Morrison kept the profile clean and the parts few. The frames are aluminum, light enough for one person to lift and strong enough for daily use on a terrace or a hotel lawn. Ergonomics got as much attention as appearance, and the goal was a long life on both counts: a frame that stays sound and a shape that still looks right after many summers in the open.
Stacking is the practical center of the design. The dining chairs with and without armrests stack, and Kettal describes the whole family as easy to stack for transport and for winter storage. In a region with snow, a full set can go into a garage or a shed over the cold months. Aluminum also handles rain without trouble, since it does not rust.
Seating runs from the stackable upholstered chair and the garden armchair to a low lounge chair with armrests, 2 and 3 seater garden sofas and a reclining sun lounger. Tables cover dining and lounging: a square stone table, rectangular tables in marble or aluminum, and low coffee and side tables in square and rectangular shapes, two of them topped in stone.
Porotex is a technical outdoor fabric pulled taut over the frame. The seat stays slim and gives a little under the body, which bare metal cannot do. A Kettal Park Life dining set around the stone table suits a restaurant patio as well as a family deck. Among Kettal patio furniture, few families are this easy to move, clear away and bring back out.

Catalog photographs of the collection in use.
Park Life was drawn by Jasper Morrison. He wanted a clean outdoor family that adapts to many settings, stacks for storage and lasts in structure and in looks.
