Elba Sofa
Made by Exteta
Designed by Massimo Castagna
The Elba Sofa is Massimo Castagna's meditation on outdoor living as architecture. Its frame reads as a composed, geometric presence, defined by the kind of proportional discipline that recalls modernist principles without quoting them directly. Deep cushions soften that rigidity with genuine warmth, creating a conversation between structure and repose.
Exteta has long approached outdoor furniture as an extension of interior sensibility, treating the terrace or garden as a room with its own emotional logic. Elba is among the clearest expressions of that philosophy: furniture designed to hold its identity under open sky, in salt air or mountain light, across seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who designed the Exteta Elba Sofa?
The Elba Sofa was designed by Massimo Castagna, an Italian designer known for work that merges architectural clarity with sensory warmth. His collaboration with Exteta reflects a shared commitment to outdoor furniture as a serious design discipline.
Is the Elba Sofa suitable for year-round outdoor use?
The Elba Sofa is engineered for outdoor environments, with materials and finishes selected to perform across changing conditions. For extended exposure to harsh weather, covering or storing cushions during off-seasons is generally advisable to preserve their character over time.
What is Exteta's design philosophy for outdoor furniture?
Exteta approaches outdoor furniture with the same formal and material rigor typically reserved for interior pieces. The brand's collections are conceived as complete environments rather than individual objects, with attention to how pieces age, relate to one another, and respond to natural light.
Can the Elba Sofa be configured as part of a larger seating arrangement?
Yes. The Elba collection is designed with compositional flexibility in mind, allowing the sofa to anchor larger outdoor seating arrangements alongside complementary pieces from the Exteta range.
What materials are used in the Elba Sofa's construction?
Exteta employs outdoor-grade materials selected for both durability and aesthetic refinement. Specific frame finishes and upholstery options are available through configuration, and details can be confirmed at the time of order.
