Alabama//Alu Two-seater sofa

Design

The Alabama//Alu Two-seater sofa brings a measured calm to open air settings. Lines are clear, proportions balanced, and every surface earns its place. A slim teak slat traces the upper edge of the arms and back, softening the silhouette and giving the eye a natural pause. Nothing shouts; the form relies on restraint and thoughtful detail.

Conceived by Marco Acerbis, the piece sits comfortably in the Alabama//Alu family while holding its own on a small balcony or a wide terrace. It feels modern without feeling cold, and compact without feeling compressed. Talenti lets the design breathe, so the sofa reads as one cohesive gesture rather than a collection of parts.

Materials & Build

The structure is powder-coated aluminum, selected for outdoor life and shaped to stay true in changing weather. The finish is smooth to the touch and quietly protective. Along the top line, solid teak slats introduce a warmer note and a tactile counterpoint to the metal frame. The mix is simple, and it works.

Under the cushions, synthetic elastic straps—engineered specifically for outdoor use—provide consistent support across the seat and back. They flex, then return, keeping the profile tidy and the sit reliable. The result is a sofa that feels light yet assured, with every element doing clear, honest work.

Comfort

Comfort starts with the give of those straps, then settles into the cushions. Covers are removable, easy to wash, and made from fabric designed to live outside. Quick-dry foam padding moves water through and out, so the sofa is ready again with minimal waiting. No fuss, just a clean, supportive seat when it’s needed.

The sit is relaxed without sinking. Support lands in the right places and stays there, making conversation or a quiet read feel equally at home. And because the materials are chosen for the outdoors, there’s no second-guessing when the weather shifts.

Placement & Lifestyle

This two-seater is sized for real spaces—small patios, city balconies, intimate courtyards—yet it doesn’t disappear on a larger deck. It stands on its own for morning coffee, pairs easily with a side table for evening drinks, and works as a modular anchor in a mixed seating area. The refined metal frame and teak detail blend with stone, wood, or concrete without competing.

Move it toward a view or tuck it into a corner garden. The Alabama//Alu Two-seater sofa adapts with quiet confidence, shifting from casual lounging to more formal hosting with a simple change of setting.

Longevity

Here, durability isn’t an afterthought. The powder-coated aluminum resists the usual outdoor challenges, while the teak slats and weather-ready fabric hold up through the seasons. Quick-dry foam simplifies upkeep after a passing shower, and removable covers make routine cleaning straightforward. But the real value is how these choices work together, day after day, without asking for much in return.

Over time, the piece keeps its shape, its comfort, and its easy rhythm. It’s a smart, well-edited expression of Italian outdoor design—precise where it matters and relaxed everywhere else. For those who appreciate that balance, the Talenti sofa delivers exactly what it promises, and then quietly keeps delivering.
