Surface Outdoor | Living beyond the frame

Pushing beyond the frame and into the exterior world

The textiles from Mokum's Surface Outdoor collection meet the visual, tactile, and performance requirements for outdoor applications in a palette of foliage-based greens, ocean blues, baked terracotta, and earthy neutrals spanning sea salt whites to deep basalt blacks.

Lifted from the Surface collection, our artistic Abstraction print has been reworked and recoloured for outdoor upholstery and accompanies two luxurious new outdoor plains, Elba and Sole Bouclé. Composed of Solution Dyed yarns these plain weave bouclé upholsteries deliver the aesthetic of the indoor boucle design movement, in constructions appropriate for the exterior space. Woven in Italy, the Surface Outdoor collection is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

ABSTRACTION OUTDOOR

Inspired by bold abstract artworks that form focal points within modernist interior spaces. Our Abstraction print from the recently launched Surface collection has been reworked and recoloured for exterior spaces, or indoor environments which require enhanced UV resistance. Digitally printed onto a textured solution dyed canvas, the delicate layers of this hand painted artwork are beautifully captured on this heavy-duty substrate. Abstraction Outdoor has been tumbled for an extra soft handle. Coloured in 4 considered shades; a warm naturalistic brick, bold azure, organic agave and dramatic obsidian.

ELBA

Woven in Italy using Solution Dyed bouclé yarns and tumbled to create its soft hand, Elba is a dimensional upholstery which brings Mediterranean glamour to Mokum’s outdoor category. Its optimistic, coastal colour palette speaks to Italian summer vacations with baked terracotta, deep sea blues, emerald greens, and fresh citrus infused shades.

Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, Elba is resistant to UV, saltwater, and chlorinated water, as well as non-allergenic and resistant to mildew and bacteria.

Elba is produced at Oeko-tex STeP certified production facilities which are audited against six core modules of sustainable textile production: chemical management, environmental performance, environmental management, social responsibility, quality management, and workplace safety.

Taking its name from the famed island in the Tuscan archipelago, renowned for its pristine beaches and turquoise waters, Elba brings a touch of the Mediterranean coastline to your home.

SOLE BOUCLE

Our latest Italian upholstery, Sole Bouclé, extends sumptuous and dimensional bouclé textiles into the exterior space. Woven in 100% Solution Dyed Olefin, Sole Bouclé is a full-bodied plain which replicates the dimension and weight of luxurious indoor wool boucle textiles. Tumbled to create its soft hand and presented in 4 naturalistic colours, Sole Bouclé speaks to its wool-inspired origins and connection to organic outdoor surfaces.

Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, Sole Bouclé is resistant to UV, saltwater, and chlorinated water, as well as non-allergenic and resistant to mildew and bacteria.

Sole Boucle is produced at Oeko-tex STeP certified production facilities which are audited against six core modules of sustainable textile production: chemical management, environmental performance, environmental management, social responsibility, quality management, and workplace safety. These facilities meet a very high standard of production conditions which ensure the safety of workers and the environment.
