The Twist 2-Seater Sofa is an iconic piece that masterfully balances visual lightness and solid volume. Designed by Mark Gabbertas, this two-seater stands out for its sophisticated rope work, meticulously braided over a robust frame. The Twist collection's design focuses on contrast: the transparency of the ropes allows light and air to pass through, while the generous volumes of the seat and backrest convey an immediate feeling of comfort and protection.
Ideal for contemporary terraces or gardens that favor tactile materials, this two-seater sofa offers a classic silhouette with a modern touch. The ergonomic curvature of the frame, combined with the organic texture of the rope, creates an intimate and sophisticated lounge atmosphere. It is a design that has stood the test of time, remaining current thanks to its luxurious simplicity and the harmony between the solids and voids of its structure.

For the Twist 2-Seater Sofa, the technical details reveal the textile innovation that Mark Gabbertas introduced to the outdoor furniture sector. The use of this double-sided "cord-strap" is not just an aesthetic detail, but an engineering solution that defines the tension and support of the piece.
The Twist sofa's distinguishing feature is its upholstery: an innovative acrylic fabric with an intermediate geometry (wider than a rope, but narrower than a traditional strap). This material is stretched over both sides of the frame, creating an internal air chamber that contributes to visual lightness and thermal comfort.
Structure (Chassis):
Material: High-strength extruded aluminum, concealed by the weave.
Finish: Powder coating for complete corrosion protection, even under textile lining.
Rope System (Acrylic Fabric):
Type: High-performance double-sided acrylic fiber rope.
Tension: Mechanically applied to both sides of the aluminum profile to ensure that there is no relaxation of the material with prolonged use.
Properties: Extreme resistance to UV rays, water repellent, and soft to the touch (similar to cotton), but with synthetic durability.
Cushioned and Comfortable: Padding: High-density quick-draining foam (QuickDry Foam) in the seat.
Comfort: Voluminous back cushions to contrast with the slender rope frame.
Maintenance: 100% recyclable materials that are resistant to mold and mildew.
