Design in dialogue with the sea

Ethimo furnishes the outdoor spaces of the new Hotel Les Venetes – Restaurant La Bôme, a project that interprets the relationship with the seascape through an open architecture in dialogue with natur
Overlooking the Gulf of Morbihan in Brittany and designed by Mounia Atelier B., the restaurant enhances the continuity between its interiors and the terrace, creating an exceptional setting to experience the beauty of the bay. To furnish the terrace, two Ethimo collections were chosen. The new Vista armchairs, designed by Christophe Pillet, harmonize with the horizon thanks to their clean-lined design and light proportions. Alongside them, the dining armchairs from the Patio collection, designed by Studio Zanellato/Bortotto, evoke the nautical world through a refined weave. Two collections, different in character yet complementary here, are united by their ability to blend naturally into the landscape. It is a project that transforms spaces dedicated to social gatherings into places where comfort and beauty coexist in perfect balance.
