Magazine: Stylish and practical
According to Melinda Mezőfi, the head of Alex Fémbútor’s hotel and gastro business line, in the world of terrace furniture fibreglass-reinforced, UV-resistant plastic furniture is gaining ground. There are several versions of these as plastic can be used in many ways. Hungarian bar and restaurant owners tend to opt for plastic chairs with aluminium legs that look like they were made of wood.
Gabriella Bakos-Tóth, the head of Coninvest Kft.’s furniture division told our magazine: the best manufacturers develop terrace furniture that is stylish, elegant and have a great design, but at the same time it is comfortable, functional and weather-resistant too. In her view it is very important for the terrace’s style to be in harmony with the restaurant’s style.
We learned from Margit Császár, store manager of Impala Bútorkereskedő Kft. that in 2018 a minimalist design prevails in the outdoor furniture segment, and it is still metal and fake rattan that sell the best. Lilac is the colour of the year and this year won’t be about the elegance of the terrace but about choosing shapes and patterns freely, about a kind of eclecticism and comfort.
This year Alex Fémbútor Kft. focuses on making their showroom in Zsámbék bigger, but they also keep in touch with hotels, bars and restaurants online. They also manufacture furniture tailored to specific customer needs. Customers can choose from innumerable colours and styles in Coninvest’s product selection. This year’s new products: wireless, rechargeable Giravolta lamps, inspired by lamps from the past, which are capable of 360-degree moving with the help of a rotating diffuser; outdoor polyethylene bars are also trendy. Impala Bútorkereskedő Kft.’s experience is that the majority of bar and restaurant owners are still looking for cheap outdoor furniture.This season there are new colours in the outdoor table category, and the company also gives priority to wood-like tables. //
