NextSpace invites architects, interior designers, hospitality teams and private clients to explore Ethimo and RODA at Downtown Design Dubai 2026. Taking place from 4 to 8 November at Dubai Design District (d3), the fair offers an opportunity to discover Italian outdoor furniture and discuss the spaces you are planning.
Find Ethimo at Booth D1 and RODA at Booth C11. Whether your next project is a beachfront resort, a restaurant terrace or a private garden, arrange a conversation with NextSpace to explore the collections in the context of your design, budget and programme.
Ethimo at Booth D1
Ethimo brings a Mediterranean sensibility to outdoor furniture. Its collections draw on the colours and textures of the landscape, with natural materials, considered detailing and an emphasis on comfort. Lounge seating, dining furniture and poolside pieces offer scope to create outdoor spaces with a relaxed, welcoming character.
The brand’s approach is evident in collections such as Knit by Patrick Norguet, where teak structures meet woven rope. The combination gives the furniture a tactile quality and a lightness that allows planting, stone and surrounding architecture to remain part of the composition.

For designers exploring Ethimo outdoor furniture in Dubai, the fair provides a useful starting point for discussing a wider scheme. Consider how a dining area connects to a lounge, how materials sit alongside the landscape, and how the selected pieces will be used throughout the day.
RODA at Booth C11
RODA approaches the garden and terrace with the same attention given to an interior. Its outdoor furniture connects the architecture of a building with the spaces around it, using proportion, texture and a considered material palette to create continuity between indoors and outdoors.
The Network collection by Rodolfo Dordoni illustrates this thinking through a structured combination of teak and woven belts. Seating and occasional pieces form a coordinated system, giving designers a way to compose an outdoor living area around the proportions and use of the space.

RODA’s broader range includes outdoor sofas, lounge chairs, dining furniture, sunloungers and daybeds. For a hotel terrace or private residence, these categories allow the scheme to be considered as a whole, with places for conversation, dining and relaxation that share a coherent design direction.
Outdoor furniture for hospitality and private homes
Choosing luxury outdoor furniture in Dubai begins with understanding the setting. A pool terrace, a restaurant courtyard and a residential garden each ask something different of a furniture collection. Seating comfort matters in all three, but the layout, circulation and daily use can change the specification considerably.
For hotels and resorts, the discussion often starts with how guests move through an outdoor area. A lounge needs space for conversation and service. Poolside furniture must work with access routes and the surrounding layout. Restaurant terraces require attention to table sizes, chair spacing and the relationship between dining capacity and comfort.
For private homes, the starting point may be a view, an existing landscape or the way the family likes to entertain. An outdoor sofa should sit comfortably within the dimensions of the terrace. A dining setting should leave room to move. Finishes can create a connection with the interior while responding to the character of the garden.
Viewing furniture in person helps bring these decisions into focus. It is an opportunity to assess proportions, compare textures and discuss materials and upholstery in relation to the project’s exposure, care requirements and intended use.
Project experience with NextSpace
NextSpace’s experience with Ethimo and RODA extends into completed hospitality projects. At Cheval Blanc Seychelles, we supplied outdoor furniture from both brands as part of a package that also included DEDON and Gloster, working with Parker Procurement and the LVMH project team.
That experience informs how we approach each new brief. Based in Dubai, NextSpace works with designers, owners and hospitality teams to bring furniture selection, specification and procurement together. Our outdoor furniture project services include layout support, product and finish selection, budget comparisons, factory communication and delivery coordination.
You can involve us while a concept is taking shape or bring an existing specification for review. We can help clarify quantities, compare options and establish the delivery scope around your programme. For larger outdoor FF&E packages, this gives your team a coordinated view of the furniture and the practical steps required to procure it.
