Alabama//Alu Living Armchair

Design

The Talenti Alabama//Alu Living Armchair brings a clear, modern line to outdoor lounging without shouting for attention. Designed by Marco Acerbis, it balances architectural crispness with a welcoming profile. Squared proportions are calm and confident, yet the silhouette feels open, never bulky. At roughly 33.5 inches wide and deep and 31.5 inches high, it offers presence without crowding the conversation. And because the seat sits at about 14.6 inches with arms at 22 inches, it reads as relaxed seating, not formal, which is exactly the point outside.

Materials & Build

The frame is crafted from powder-coated aluminum, chosen for its strength and poise in the elements. It resists corrosion and keeps its color, even under regular sun. Teak slats accent the arms and back, softening the metal with a natural, tactile warmth. The pairing feels honest and balanced—industrial clarity meeting grounded, organic detail.

Under the cushions, synthetic elastic straps support both seat and back. They’re specifically developed for outdoor use, so the structure doesn’t just look clean; it performs cleanly, with resilient give where it should. At about 37.5 pounds, the chair is sturdy enough to feel planted, light enough to shift when the layout changes or the view demands it.

Comfort

Cushions are finished in removable, weather-resistant fabric with quick-dry foam inside. Rain happens; comfort shouldn’t vanish because of it. The foam drains fast, the covers clean easily, and the seat returns to form without fuss. There’s a generous sit here—broad, supportive, and relaxed—thanks to the measured proportions and the underlying strap system. It invites longer conversations, a second espresso, one more chapter. And it does so without sinking or slouching over time.

Placement & Lifestyle

The Alabama//Alu Living Armchair lands well on a pool terrace, city balcony, or shaded garden corner. Its footprint—about 33.5 by 33.5 inches—works as a stand-alone reading perch or paired around a low table. Finish options in white-grey or graphite–dark grey let it slip into light, coastal palettes or anchor a more urban scheme. Mix it with other pieces from the Alabama//Alu collection for a cohesive setting, or let it quietly elevate an eclectic outdoor mix. It plays well with stone, timber decking, and concrete alike.

Longevity

Every choice here considers the long view. Powder-coated aluminum keeps its integrity season after season. Teak gains character with age and, when maintained, remains beautifully serviceable. The weather-resistant textiles and quick-dry foam reduce downtime after a storm and make care straightforward. When the season closes or the forecast turns, an optional cover helps protect the investment with minimal effort. In short, the Talenti design holds its line, year in and year out, so the armchair stays as considered as the day it arrived.
