The collaboration marks Azzurro Living's first-ever designer partnership and Thom Filicia's first-ever outdoor furniture collection.

DALLAS, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Azzurro Living, the award-winning luxury outdoor furniture brand known for its fresh, modern approach to outdoor living, announces a new design partnership with acclaimed interior and product designer Thom Filicia. The collaboration represents two significant firsts: the first designer partnership in Azzurro Living's history and Filicia's first-ever outdoor furniture collection.

The partnership brings together two complementary design perspectives, united by a belief that outdoor spaces deserve the same thoughtfulness, sophistication and personality as the interiors of a home. Together, Filicia and Azzurro Living are blurring the boundaries between indoors and out-creating furniture that feels refined and design-driven, while remaining comfortable, approachable and made for real life.

"Working with Thom has felt incredibly natural from the beginning. We understand each other's aesthetic, but we also challenge each other in ways that make the work more interesting. Thom brings an incredible depth of design knowledge and a point of view that feels completely at home within Azzurro. For our first design partnership, I can't imagine a better person-or friend-to help us push outdoor furniture forward."

BRANDON KERSHNER, PARTNER & VICE PRESIDENT OF DESIGN, AZZURRO LIVING

For Filicia, whose celebrated career spans residential, hospitality and commercial interiors as well as an extensive portfolio of furniture, textiles, wallcoverings and home furnishings, the collaboration is a natural expansion of his signature "comfortably chic" approach to design into the outdoors.

"We wanted to create outdoor furniture that feels every bit as thoughtfully designed as the best pieces you'd put inside your home. It's about bringing the inside out-where comfort, sophistication and livability all exist in the same piece. Great design should make you want to stay: one more cup of coffee in the morning, one more glass of wine at night, one more conversation around the table."

The forthcoming collections explore sculptural silhouettes, natural textures, nuanced material combinations and refined craftsmanship, with every proportion, weave and finish intentionally considered. The result is confident, relaxed and effortlessly cool: outdoor furniture with a point of view, designed to feel current without becoming trend-driven.

"The way people live outdoors has fundamentally changed," adds Kershner. "We've always believed in designing outdoor spaces with an indoor mentality-thinking about comfort, proportion, materiality and the emotional connection people have with the furniture they live with. Thom shares that philosophy. Together, we're creating pieces meant to become part of people's lives and the backdrop for the moments that happen there."

Filicia founded Thom Filicia, Inc. in 1998 and has become one of America's most recognized interior and product designers. An ELLE DECOR A-List designer, Luxe Gold List honoree and House Beautiful Top 100 Designer, he first gained widespread recognition as the interior design expert on the Emmy Award-winning Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. His portfolio includes work for clients and brands including Tina Fey, Jennifer Lopez, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, Delta Air Lines, W Hotels and Grace Bay Club.

The Thom Filicia x Azzurro Living collection will debut October 17-21, 2026, at High Point Market, in Azzurro Living's Broad Hall showroom at 300 W. Broad Ave., with collection imagery, product details and availability to be announced.
