JOIN outdoor furniture series
The outdoors, reinvented
How many times have you had to rely on sheer arm strength to rearrange outdoor furniture on your terrace or in the yard? Forget about it with our JOIN furniture series. Moving and rearranging should be as easy as it is fun to spend time outdoors.
JOIN, an outdoor furniture series, was conceived by landscape architect Hannah Marshall at Tengbom in collaboration with product designer Mathieu Gustafsson. Nola Industrier AB further developed and refined the series, which became available for purchase in fall 2023. JOIN celebrates flexibility, functionality, and aesthetics, proving that outdoor spaces can be as dynamic as they are stylish.
Flexibility and functionality – combine as you like
Perfect for terraces, patios, and courtyards, the series includes benches, tables, side tables, stools in multiple sizes, and hanging tabletops that attach to the planter at two different heights to match table levels. The green planter boxes on wheels work as dividers or standalone islands. The idea is to combine series elements in countless ways, tailored to various events, needs, and spaces. Flexibility, adaptability, and function take center stage – the only limitation is your imagination.
Roll, rearrange, relax
Practicing what we preach: JOIN at Tengbom’s terrace
The idea for the JOIN series originated from a need for functional, attractive outdoor furniture for Tengbom’s former Stockholm office’s rooftop terrace on Katarinavägen. When we relocated to Vasastan, the furniture naturally came along to enhance our new courtyard. Sometimes we need a large setup for an event, other times fewer pieces for a more private lunch. A table can be a table, or it might function as an exhibition piece. A stool might serve as seating or as a smaller serving table.
Designed for change
Flexibility is at the heart of JOIN, along with simplicity and lightness. The pieces feature lightweight constructions, making them easy to rearrange as needed. Each component has adjustable feet, ensuring stable placement even on uneven surfaces. Made from high-quality, durable steel with surfaces of wood (oak) and sheet metal, the planters are crafted from aluminum. Perforated patterns on the metal surfaces add a playful touch and create a cohesive aesthetic across the series. The result is a warm, inviting collection that feels equal parts robust and approachable.
A fun collab between Tengbom + Nola!
