Owing to the collaboration between Exteta and Riva, a co-branded line of furnishings has evolved that fuses the sublime beauty and savoir-faire of the two brands, offering a lifestyle inspired by the nautical world.
Two excellences converge to create a perfect balance of sophistication and skilled craftsmanship. Exteta and Riva have launched an exclusive collaboration that is the epitome of contemporary elegance.
Exteta x Riva is the new outdoor furniture collection that transforms any living space into the ultimate stylish experience, injecting the iconic allure of yachting into the world of interior design.
Designed by Massimo Castagna, the collection draws its inspiration from Riva’s most authentic soul, its heritage and history spanning over 180 years. Every detail bears witness to the fine expertise that has permeated every creation of Italina shipyard since 1842, from the legendary symbol of the “dolce vita” of the 1960s to the technological innovation and the full-custom approach that have underpinned the brand's most recent evolution. The epitome of sophisticated and timeless style, Riva has shaped a whole lifestyle of its own, both on and off the sea. It is this very approach that aligns perfectly with Exteta, a company that has redefined the concept of the outdoors crafting products of the highest quality in terms of materials and workmanship. The elegant design and superb craftsmanship that are the hallmarks of the legendary Riva motorboats are embodied in the Exteta collections, so that together they deliver a fresh take on the nautical experience.
Exteta x Riva encompasses a complete range of furnishings, designed to enhance both the most refined residential settings as well as yacht decks.
An ode to the sea, to beauty, to the art of living: this is Exteta x Riva.
Seating elements, upholstered furniture, tables, complementary items and accessories: the versatility of the collection brings a touch of refined conviviality to any setting, creating lounge nooks, places to relax and dining areas where the outdoors can be savoured in total ease. Each element boasts the Riva style, starting with the materials: from the prized sapele mahogany, masterfully crafted with its iconic glossy finish to the shining and vibrant stainless steel accents. The sofas stand out for their sculptural design, with full volumes and generous padding, seemingly suspended on feet that raise them slightly, to create a sophisticated illusion of weightlessness. Its modules can accommodate a wide range of seating arrangements, while two different types of armrests ensure maximum versatility: padded, with a slightly curved shape, or in wood, with a wide, elongated armrest that brings to mind the sophisticated contours of Riva yachts.
This unique attribute is also echoed in the lounge chair and director's chair, two designs that are more essential and lightweight, but no less comfortable thanks to their deep, padded seats.
The sense of harmony conveyed by the combination of wood and stainless steel is also a feature of the dining table (available in two sizes) and coffee tables, with their wood tops with parallel slats. Adding the finishing touch is the wireless stainless steel lamp, a smart detail that adds subtle lighting to any setting.
There is no doubt that Exteta x Riva epitomises unbridled elegance, where design and heritage meld into a new manifestation of outdoor living.
