Rodolfo Dordoni (1954 to 2023) was one of Italy's most influential contemporary designers, trained at the Politecnico di Milano and long recognised for his rigorous, refined approach to furniture, lighting and interiors. Over four decades he served as art director and designer for many of the leading Italian design houses, shaping collections that combined discipline with warmth.

For Roda, Dordoni designed some of the brand's most iconic outdoor collections, bringing his signature language of clean lines, honest materials and quiet elegance to the garden. His pieces feel timeless rather than trend driven, favouring comfort, proportion and craftsmanship.
