Grasshopper by Wieki Somers for Tectona

Since spring is on the way, here's a range of metal garden furniture designed by Dutch designer Wieki Somers for French brand Tectona.

Called Grasshopper, the collection includes two tables and a chair made of  steel and aluminium, powder-coated in light green.

Legs narrow towards the feet while a pattern of round holes prevents water collecting on surfaces.

The new GRASSHOPPER collection, created by Wieki Somers for Tectona, consists of two tables and a chair in powder-coated aluminium and steel.

The bounding elegance of the forms and the pastel green perforated surfaces are simply enchanting.

The two GRASSHOPPER tables, one rectangular and the other square, may be used separately or together, as a reading table in a corner of the garden or a dining table on the patio.

Alongside the two tables in powder-coated aluminium and steel, the GRASSHOPPER chair rounds off the collection wonderfully. The chair seat and light legs belie its comfort and stability.
