Outdoor Dining with Piatto

Robust, sustainable and low maintenance.

Piatto is built tough for outdoor dining in the public realm – made to stay outside all day, every day.

Select from a Chair, Love Seat, Table, Coffee Table, Stool and Bar Stool (see below). Each piece is certified carbon neutral through Climate Active, and backed by vigorous testing to ensure safety, durability and serviceability for the lifetime of the product.

This versatile collection features a variety of batten and solid top options and provision for freestanding and multiple fixing solutions, enabling site specific configuration.

By supporting outdoor dining in the ‘third place’ – places to meet outside home and work – Piatto aspires to encourage communities to socialise and connect.

Third Place Inspirations

We invited leading Australian landscape architects to imagine an outdoor dining space in a given scenario: Streetscape, Laneway, Waterfront, Pocket Park and Campus.

We asked: How might we bring joy to public spaces with increasing urban density? Each firm was given two weeks to sketch a 3x10m space. The renderings were produced by Street Furniture Australia.
