Azzurro Living introduces its 2025 collection, showcasing bold new designs that the company says push the boundaries of outdoor furniture craftsmanship.
Led by Brandon Kershner, partner and vice president of design, the new 2025 collections reflect a passion for good design and a commitment to blending art and functionality.
“There’s a unique joy in creating something from nothing,” says Kershner. “We founded Azzurro Living on our love for design and saw an opportunity to bring something truly exciting to the outdoor furniture space.” Designing each piece is a journey, one that begins with inspiration and evolves through meticulous refinement. “The first sample is like a rough draft,” Kershner explains. “There are always revisions — adjusting details, improving comfort and finding the perfect materials. I work hand-in-hand with artisans, collaborating daily on everything from the width and texture to the color and material blending.”
The hands-on approach is fundamental to Dallas-based Azzurro Living’s success, allowing for the development of innovative techniques and designs. “Understanding how things are made is essential to high-quality design,” Kershner says. “It’s about collaboration — working together to innovate with new weaves, patterns and material manipulation.”
The process is also fueled by creativity and playfulness. “Design is about balance,” Kershner says. “You have to know when to explore, be loose and have fun, and when to embrace constraints and focus on precision. That balance is key to delivering exceptional pieces. Inspiration is at the heart of every creation. As creatives, we find ways to take inspiration and create something new, even in a world where it feels like everything has been done before,” says Kershner. “The process never stops. Designing is about not being afraid to fail and trying new things.
“At Azzurro Living, we’re committed to taking risks, learning from them and moving forward,” Kershner says. “It’s all about creating furniture that inspires joy and transforms outdoor spaces.”
