David Irwin drew on the simplicity of Japanese design to create Case Furniture' s Tanso outdoor sofa, which looks like it could belong indoors.

The Tanso sofa has the detail and craftsmanship of indoor furniture while being weather resistant and durable enough to withstand the outdoors.

The sofa is inspired by Japanese furniture and its simplicity

"With Tanso, we wanted to create a collection of wooden outdoor furniture that would possess the same quality and craftsmanship as indoor pieces," said Irwin.

"The entire range is made from high quality, sustainable, grade-A teak, which provides the durability needed for outdoor use."

It comes with a teak frame and grey cushions

Tanso' s teak frame is complemented by grey seat pads and cushions, upholstered in an outdoor fabric that is breathable and easy to clean.

The Tanso sofa is available as a two- or three-seater. It is part of Case Furniture's Tanso outdoor collection, which also includes two tables and armchairs as well as a bench, bar stool and side chair.
