On The Rocks Outdoor Sofa
Made by Edra
Designed by Francesco Binfare
Francesco Binfaré has spent decades questioning what a sofa is allowed to be. The On The Rocks Outdoor Sofa answers that question with four irregular geometric modules, each shaped to receive the body with uncommon generosity, and none of them fixed in relation to the others.
Composition is open. The modules can be arranged and rearranged freely, while the independent backrests respond to posture rather than dictate it. The form reads as sculpture from across a terrace and dissolves into pure comfort the moment you settle in.
Beneath the weather-resistant upholstery, Edra's patented Gellyfoam adapts to weight and contour while holding its shape through seasons of outdoor use. It is a material developed entirely in-house, one of several proprietary technologies that distinguish the Edra approach to craft.
- Four freeform modular units, freely configurable
- Independent, repositionable backrests on each module
- Edra proprietary Gellyfoam cushioning system
- Upholstery engineered for outdoor conditions

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Edra's Gellyfoam and how does it perform outdoors?
Gellyfoam is a proprietary cushioning material developed by Edra that conforms to body weight and contour, then returns to its original form. The version used in the On The Rocks Outdoor Sofa is formulated to maintain this behavior through extended outdoor exposure, resisting compression set over time.
How many modules does the On The Rocks Outdoor Sofa include?
The sofa is composed of four freeform geometric modules. Each unit is independent and can be arranged in any configuration, allowing the composition to be adapted to the space and the occasion.
Can the backrests be repositioned after the sofa is placed?
Yes. The backrests on each module move independently, allowing occupants to adjust angle and orientation to personal preference without tools or reconfiguring the entire piece.
Is Francesco Binfaré's work consistent across Edra's collection?
Binfaré has been one of Edra's most enduring creative voices, responsible for pieces like the Flap, Standard, and Boa sofas. His work for the brand consistently explores the boundary between ergonomic function and sculptural form, often through proprietary materials and non-conventional geometries.
What upholstery options are available for outdoor use?
On The Rocks Outdoor is offered in fabrics selected for resistance to UV exposure, moisture, and the general demands of outdoor environments. Specific colorways and fabric specifications are confirmed at the time of order, as the piece is made to order.
