Archetype for McGuire
By combining pure forms with an inspired use of materials, internationally recognized designer Michael Vanderbyl has created a collection of classic modern designs worthy of any space, inside or out.

Choosing this rather industrial material gave license to an architectural interpretation of traditional outdoor furniture forms. The aluminum is powder-coated with a lustrous platinum finish and designed to be heat resistant - making the designs at once sophisticated for any decor and practical for outdoor use in any climate.

For inspiration, Vanderbyl turned to his appreciation for mid-century modern design and his lifelong interest in the sea. Recalling the simplicity of teak grates on the decks of sailboats, Vanderbyl created a geometric grid pattern used as the primary design element. The structure and geometry of the teak are married with a delicate yet durable aluminum frame, while the purity of sailcloth is interpreted in the cushions and handsome umbrella. Table tops are paired with the collection's distinct teak grids or a frosted tempered glass.

Unique in form, pure in line and precise in execution, Archetype for McGuire represents one of the most sophisticated groups for the loggia, garden or terrace. Items this masterfully designed and artfully executed make them ideal for any room of the house.
