Outsiders – Extremis from Living Edge
Built on a foundation of quality, authentic and sustainable design, Extremis is a European outdoor furniture brand offering collections that are both pragmatically useful and aesthetically considered. Available in Australia through Living Edge, Extremis encapsulates the concept of buy well, buy once in a culture inherently connected to outdoor living.
Founded in Belgium by Flemish furniture designer Dirk Wynants in 1994, Extremis was established to enhance human interaction, developing a collection of products seen as ‘tools for togetherness’. With over 25 years of history behind the brand, the Extremis portfolio of outdoor products has become synonymous with intelligent design and sustainable manufacturing, often developing into integral contributors to spaces and lives for many years.
Testament to the ethos of bringing people together, Extremis endeavours to create timeless products that are iconic in design, radical in their sustainable impact and universally loved for their quality and authenticity. The culture of sustainable quality that informs all that Extremis produces is encapsulated in globally renowned collections such as Hopper, Bistroo, Sol + Luna and Gargantua. Instantly recognisable by their striking designs, these products are the true embodiment of the Extremis spirit, offering functional yet beautiful outdoor solutions whilst resonating with an intangible power for facilitating human connection.
Sustainability also represents a necessary condition for every Extremis design and the lack of traces each collection leaves behind. Durability and, ultimately, longevity are built into the aesthetics of the entire Extremis collection, offering a comprehensive range of sustainably sourced natural materials that not only enhance human connection but connection to the planet as well. The iconic Bistroo picnic table, a product that has formed the foundation for many a romantic rendezvous, has been designed to combat the harshness of the outdoor environment, using ethically sourced materials specifically chosen for their sustainable qualities. This is true of the entire Extremis collection, indicative of a brand renowned for transforming radical ideas into innovative designs.
Living Edge’s partnership with Extremis represents the merging of twin ideologies and the fusing of two brands committed to original and sustainable design. By introducing Extremis to an Australian culture inherently connected to the outdoor environment, Living Edge has established itself as a leading destination for those looking to elevate their outdoor space
whilst seeking enhanced connection.
