In its latest collection, created exclusively for outdoor environments, McGuire has again partnered with internationally renowned interior designer, Thomas Pheasant, to create The Thomas Pheasant Outdoor Collection of 17 pieces, an expressive compilation of modern forms.
Resonating with the classic sensibility found in his earlier designs, Pheasant created a collection that showcases the unique handcraftsmanship synonymous with McGuire with a practicality to endure a range of climate conditions. For its strength, ease of maintenance and lightweight quality, Pheasant chose woven resin fibers and aluminum frames as his medium. The collection includes a sofa, a single and double chaise, four chairs, a bench and ottoman, two dining tables, three occasional tables, a bar cart, and unique tête-à-tête style bench.
Inspired by classic form, Pheasant approached these designs with the eye of an artist, creating pieces that are functional and versatile, imparting strength of line and a timelessness that does not emphasize one era or style. "Bringing modern edges to classic forms and shapes is the foundation of my design vocabulary," explained Pheasant. "I will forever be a student of great design, and have always been intuitive to my surroundings."
All pieces are available in Java with bronze frames or Pearl with Seashell White frames.

"Outdoor furniture has to speak to its surroundings and remain beautiful. There are few choices in the marketplace today that effectively bring fine design to the outside and still maintain the level of comfort and luxury one expects from an indoor environment."
- Designer Thomas Pheasant
