Meet the Designer
Designed by
Angie Thornbury, ASID/CID
La Fête Design is the brainchild of Angie Thornbury, ASID/CID, and is made in Valencia, California.
Her work is drawn as soft, rounded, modular forms, each one meant to read as a shape in the landscape before it reads as furniture.
The Design Story
It frames the person sitting in it like a picture, creating a nook with no wall, pergola or frame behind it. Garden, spa courtyard or terrace becomes a stage for a single quiet seat or two guests facing each other, and the patented circular form is as striking empty as occupied.
What sets La Fête apart is the form itself: rounded, patented, and drawn to be approached from every side, then upholstered in Chill White, an open canvas for embroidery or slipcovers, or in ten further vinyl colors.
Why You'll Love It
- Covers are replaceable
- Made in Valencia, California, and shipped fully assembled
- Custom C.O.M. slipcovers and logo personalization can be arranged through the brand's sales team
Made for Real Life
- Plan a 78 in x 26 in footprint with at least 80 in of clear height.
- Set it on a firm, level base and keep it out of strong wind unless secured; the brand publishes no anchoring guidance.
- The bench suits one person lounging or two seated guests.
- The brand states this item cannot ship by FedEx Ground and is delivered by scheduled special delivery. Measure doors, gates and elevators for an 80 in piece.
- Add pillows and a throw to personalize the seat.
- Choose a color that contrasts with the backdrop.
Wipe with mild dish soap and warm water, then rinse with clear water. For a stubborn mark, use a soft brush with a gentle non-abrasive cleanser and light pressure, because abrasive products can dull the vinyl's protective finish. The brand also sells its own vinyl cleaner and conditioning cream, and a damaged or outdated cover can be replaced.
Worth knowing
- Groups of more than two who want shared seating
- Sites with under 80 in of overhead clearance or 78 in of width
- Projects needing a published weight rating or lead time
- Buyers looking for a recliner or a conventional chair with arms
