Spruce up your backyard space with these stylish and functional additions.
HANGING OUT
Love the soothing rock of a hammock? Hanging Zomes are the luxury upgrade. Designed by KODAMA, their shape and movement are inspired by dynamic motion and natural geometry. Unlike hammocks or swings, the zomes hang from a single overhead point, creating smooth, gentle, unrestricted motion.

INSTANT AMBIANCE
Music and glowing lights bring a lot to a party. The UMA Sound Lantern, a portable light-speaker hybrid from Pablo, sets the perfect atmosphere for your backyard or patio. The sculptural fixture boasts a leather strap for carrying, LED technology, a wireless speaker to create 360 degrees of light and sound, touch-sensitive volume control, Bluetooth connection and a light control dial. Consider it the modern equivalent of a campfire with built-in stereo.

COMFORT CLASS
The outdoor version of Roche Bobois’s Mah Jong sofa is as striking and as versatile as its indoor counterpart. The sectional starts with three basic elements that can be combined or stacked, allowing for limitless options of composition — it can be an armchair, sofa, lounge chair or bed; a stylish space in which to socialize, rest and lounge.
