Today's garden architecture may be more playful and frivolous than ever, the new collection by Belgian architect and designer Vincent Van Duysen for Tribù goes resolutely its own way: tight and sober, with an eye for detail and supported by unique technological knowhow. The result is an every-inch Belgian line in surprising materials: Neutra. For its new collection of outdoor furniture season 2009 Tribù enlisted the architectural talent of Vincent Van Duysen (Lokeren, Belgium °1962). As architect he has a number of interesting projects to his name at national and international level and has now also won his spurs in the world of design. The cooperation with Tribù resulted in the elegant, sober outdoor line ‘Neutra'. The collection includes an armchair, easy chair, lounger and two accessory tables. Neutra is ‘100% made in Belgium' and perfectly reflects the design vision shared by Vincent Van Duysen and Tribù: sober elegance and well-considered detailing for discreet luxury. The sober elegance finds expression in clean, simple forms and flowing lines. A restrained style but with an assured sense of detail. The frame of the chairs, for instance, has a triangular profile that creates the illusion of extra-fine lines. And the chairs and lounger have a matt black inlay on the armrest. Vincent Van Duysen: “Tribù's style fits well with what I'm working towards in my architectural projects. No spectacular loud furniture, but a lasting, timeless line with an eye for detail. We also share a love of pure forms and flowing lines and dare to go a step further technologically. In that sense the cooperation with Tribù was especially constructive. The unique technological know-how is a welcome added value in the development of the collection. Thanks to the special technique of injecting aluminium, for example, the frame is completely seamless, which only enhances the design with flowing lines.” The Neutra collection will be available from Spring 2009.
