Fermob Lorette Bench
LORETTE BENCH
LORETTE BENCH
Deigned by Frédéric Sofia
The Lorette bench is the brainchild of Frédéric Sofia, a designer who’s enjoyed a long and illustrious partnership with Fermob – including the iconic Luxembourg range.
This item of furniture, which is packed with personality, is the latest addition to the already-generous collection of the same name.
No matter where you place your Lorette bench, it’s sure to impress: on the patio or terrace, or even at the bottom of the garden at your country house the ideal place for shared secrets and hushed, whispered conversations.
As you admire the play on light and shade created by the floral pattern, you won’t even notice the time passing. This bench is inspired by the famous Confident model – the double-seated, face-to-face design that lets two people converse without having to turn around.
Clever, right? Its styling is perfectly in keeping with the neo-romantic spirit of the Lorette collection, while its delicate, perforated pattern is inspired by mashrabiyas.
DESIGNER
FRÉDÉRIC SOFIA
Between graphics and function, structural realism and formal aesthetics, Frédéric Sofia makes his way instinctively, from the world of objects to contemporary art.
Self-taught, his formation followed atypical and transversal paths. He functions without methodology, without theory, with a practical intuition that needs no explanation. He intervenes on the object in a way that is both classical and viral.
The transformations, the messages, are subtly conveyed. Sly references take form and propagate. Without frontiers, a hybrid soul, he recognizes the signs of affiliation, respects individual groups, desacralizing symbols even as he restores them.
A reminder of the evolution of things, homage to what he loves, be it industrial or environmental, his design speaks the language of the collective imagination while celebrating the soul of the object.

And while you’re at it, why not complement your stylish bench with other pieces from the expansive Lorette collection?

DESIGN
It stands out for its asymmetrical design: one half is an armchair, the other is a chair. Original in every sense of the word! It may be elegant in design and packed with technical qualities, but that doesn’t mean it compromises on sturdiness: this bench can withstand all weathers, while the sun’s rays are no match for its anti-UV polyester powder coating.
