About the collection
Allaperto Bistrò, dining armchair The iconic lounge collection that is the result of collaboration between Ethimo, Matteo Thun, and Antonio Rodriguez sees the addition of a new element for outdoor socialising.
Allaperto Bistrò is the dining armchair inspired by the cosy atmosphere of typical French bistros. Reworked by Ethimo, Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez, this new armchair is characterised by the ergonomic comfort of its seat and its totally on-trend allure preserves the unmistakable, timeless charm of weaving.
Conceived for the design of welcoming and evocative outdoor dining and conversation areas for the contract and hospitality sector, Allaperto Bistrò dining armchair is also perfect for residential settings, enabling compositions that are both surprising and original.
The creative approach of Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez, MTD-R, to product design is characterized by simplified forms and the use of warm and natural materials. At the root of each project is an in-depth study of materials, technologies, the market and the client with a view to combining a minimal aesthetic with direct functionality. The goal of the innovative design items created by Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez is to influence the evolution of everyday life.

In situ
Allaperto Bistrò sits within the catalog of Ethimo, the Italian outdoor furniture house, and is designed by Matteo Thun & Antonio Rodriguez. Ethimo produces in Italy across specialty outdoor materials — teak, powder-coated aluminum, rope, ceramic, stone and outdoor fabrics — selected per collection, with established US trade representation.
For US trade specifiers, Allaperto Bistrò carries the same material data sheets and US-trade documentation as the rest of the Ethimo catalog: ASTM F1858 outdoor furniture compliance where applicable, fire-code classification on cushion components, and chain-of-shipment documentation supplied with the invoice. Bespoke fabric or finish substitutions are accepted on COM workflow with confirmed yardage at quote stage; see the Sunbrella and Outdura specifier reference for the workflow at the European factory.
Net pricing for Allaperto Bistrò is quoted at US trade volumes, before fabric grade, finish premium, and consolidated freight. Lead time is 8-14 weeks from the Italian factory to US port for standard configurations; bespoke dimensions, COM upholstery, or large hospitality volumes extend by 4-8 weeks. The collection is specified in US hospitality outdoor (boutique hotel terraces, resort pool decks, restaurant outdoor dining) and in premium residential outdoor (terrace, courtyard, poolside) installations.

Ethimo outdoor pieces share a common care pattern: quarterly rinse with clean water and mild soap, twice-yearly inspection of cushions and fittings, and off-season storage of soft goods in freeze-thaw climates. Structural elements (aluminum, FSC teak, steel, stone) typically carry 5-10 year warranties; fabrics and cushions 2-3 years against UV and stitching. US service life on Ethimo outdoor is typically 15-25 years on structural elements and 5-10 years on cushions, with COM refresh extending the cycle.
