Exteta has redefined the concept of the outdoors, elevating it to a new standard that knows no bounds. Its creations convey a sense of authentic beauty, made with superior materials, and fine artistry expressed through a bespoke design that blends effortlessly within any space. Guided by this unique philosophy, the brand stands as the haute couture of open-air living, where aesthetics and effortless comfort meet. The Art of Outdoor Living: Crafted with Passion. Defined by Innovation Exteta was founded in 2006 in the heart of Brianza, a region internationally renowned as a cradle of Italian craftsmanship and creativity. From the very beginning, the brand was driven by a clear and distinctive vision, with an immediate focus on the outside world. Rooted in its origins, the brand has always pursued extensive research into the finest materials, bespoke finishes, and continuous experimentation - leading to creations that transcend the boundaries of classic open-air furniture. This approach has positioned Exteta to an unprecedented level of excellence in terms of performance, durability, and quality - values that come together in a style both sophisticated and refined. Exteta’s enduring mission is to create exterior spaces that reflect the elegance and comfort of interiors - giving rise to fluid, harmonious environments. This visionary approach has set new trends in contemporary design, shaping a lifestyle where indoor and outdoor blend seamlessly. Every detail is conceived to celebrate the art of alfresco living, transforming gardens, terraces, and yachts into elegant, and inviting havens. Timeless Creativity Ongoing partnerships with internationally renowned designers have enabled Exteta to explore new forms and aesthetics, all while staying true to its identity. Today, the brand offers a wide and diverse range of product lines, divided into the Contemporary and Heritage collections. Designers such as Massimo Castagna, Paola Navone OTTO Studio, Ludovica + Roberto Palomba, and Studiopepe - currently the brand’s Artistic Director - have translated Exteta’s core values into furnishings that harmoniously integrate with the natural landscape. At the same time, re- editions of iconic pieces by great masters like Franco Albini, Gae Aulenti, and Marco Zanuso underscore the brand’s deep respect for tradition and outstanding craftsmanship. This ongoing evolution has cemented Exteta’s status as a benchmark in high-end outdoor design, paving the way for co-branded collaborations with prestigious names such as Loro Piana Interiors and Jacquemus in fashion, and Riva in the world of nautical design - striking a perfect balance between heritage and innovation. The Foundation of Quality: Materials Each Exteta creation reflects meticulous research focused on selecting raw materials chosen for their exceptional performance. All products are specially engineered to meet the rigorous standards of the nautical world - particularly the high expectations of the luxury yachting sector, where resistance to wear and durability are paramount. Equally important is the aesthetic dimension, which must reflect the exclusive ambiance and lifestyle of discerning yacht owners. This design philosophy, embedded in all the brand’s collections, ensures premium quality across every setting - from residential to hospitality. At Exteta, sapele mahogany stands as a hallmark of excellence - renowned as the most prestigious and high-performance wood for outdoor use. Its legacy speaks for itself: this highly superior material is used to craft the iconic Venetian gondolas and the legendary Riva boats. Finishes such as Natural, Matt, and High Gloss are applied by hand through a meticulous, multi-step process to ensure lasting durability and a flawless result. The same dedication to detail is evident in the padding - engineered to endure all weather conditions while offering maximum comfort - and in the upholstery, with a catalogue boasting numerous types of leather and fabrics. Zero Kilometre Craftsmanship Exteta’s collections are deeply rooted in traditional expertise, shaped by the rich heritage of the region where it was founded. This local legacy continues to inspire the brand and provide a wealth of artisanal mastery. Each piece is meticulously crafted and finished by hand. An in- house carpentry workshop, a dedicated upholstery atelier, and a trusted network of local artisans enable the creation of bespoke furnishings, customisable down to the finest detail. Before leaving the warehouse, every product undergoes a rigorous quality check - personally carried out by one of the company’s partners - to ensure absolute excellence. Conscious Sustainability At Exteta, innovation is inseparable from a deep commitment to sustainability - an approach grounded in ethics, respect for people, and care for the environment. All the wood used in production is FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) certified, ensuring responsible sourcing, traceability, and reforestation. The company has also obtained ISO 9001 certification for the quality and efficiency of its business processes and is currently working toward ISO 14001, which recognises excellence in environmental management. A key part of this commitment is the annual publication of Exteta’s Sustainability Report, which transparently communicates the brand’s social, environmental, and economic impact. This constant evolution is reflected in tangible initiatives - such as the installation of an extensive photovoltaic system, which drastically reduces energy consumption and enables near-total self-sufficiency. Exteta also collaborates exclusively with local artisans, reinforcing its dedication to the territory and helping preserve traditional craftsmanship. This deep attention to nature and community extends beyond the product, becoming a way of life.
