Contemporary Outdoor Furniture Reinventing Mid Century Style

Contemporary outdoor furniture, influenced by the mid-century style, stands apart from other modern furniture designs. Vladimir Kagan created distinctive outdoor furnishings that blend natural inspiration, antique luxury, and Bauhaus functionality. The creative move toward sculpted forms transforms outdoor furniture into artful, elegant masterpieces. Lushome presents Kagan’s Capricorn Collection.

It was launched in 1952 and remains attractive in many ways. While garden furniture is a necessity today, most outdoor furniture design ideas remain bland. The studio-edited and relaunched HOLLY HUNT collection of garden furniture features more artistic, distinctive sculptural forms while maintaining mid-century modern aesthetics, making beautiful pieces for backyard designs or poolside patios.

Fully functional yet innovative and attractive, wire-framed designs feature soft curves and cozy, shell-like contours. The bold and original outdoor furniture collection evokes a comfortable functionality and architectural lightness. Chris Eitel, design director of Vladimir Kagan Design Group, sought to channel mid-century vibes in the reimagined designs.

The tensile mesh structures re-engineered the garden furniture designs with an efficient, seamless welding technique. All edits and refinements to the pieces preserve Vladi’s spirit in the designs, maintaining the connection between designer and craftsman that is central to Kagan’s design DNA.
