Smile Lounge Chair
Made by Paola Lenti
Designed by Paola Lenti
The Smile lounge chair is defined by its single-piece silhouette, a contoured shell that wraps the body with quiet generosity. Conceived by Paola Lenti, it belongs to a broader family of seating that includes a twin-seat sofa and a storage ottoman, each sharing the same formal vocabulary.
What distinguishes Smile is its covering. Paola Lenti's proprietary Aero fabric presents a three-dimensional surface structure that is both tactile and functional: fully removable for cleaning, water-resistant by construction, and resilient across climates. An optional protective cover set extends the chair's life through harsher seasons.
- Single-piece shell construction with a gracefully contoured profile
- Upholstered in Paola Lenti's exclusive Aero fabric
- Removable, water-resistant three-dimensional covering

Paola Lenti has built its identity around the idea that outdoor furniture need not compromise on softness or sophistication. The Smile chair carries that sensibility directly, moving between exterior and interior environments without loss of character.
