The art of slow living Shared moments Rediscover the joys of experiences that seem like they should last forever. The type where you simply forget about time in the midst of engaging conversations, delicious food and the company of family and friends. We like to think that Tectona furniture is conducive to such moments, not least by the comfort of the seating pieces and the naturalness of forms that transition imperceptibly from one generation to the next. “Contemporary Classic” For 40 years, Tectona have been making furniture synonymous with the passage of time and the changing of the seasons,...

At the heart of the workshop Painstaking standards All Tectona furniture has passed through our workshop in Normandy. The workshop, headed by a recipient of the prestigious Meilleur Ouvrier de France award, decides every step of the production process. It is a site of experimentation, analysis and also research. It is where, prior to prototyping, a designer’s brainchild undergoes a refinement process in which no detail is too small. Blending craftsmanship with technology Traditional cabinetmaking techniques for wooden furniture, advanced technologies for aluminium and woven resin furniture, specialist...

Showcasing French heritage It was natural that Tectona benches, renowned for their sturdiness and their durability, would be selected for prestigious public sites such as large parks and gardens of...

…to large hotels When voluptuousness combines with extreme refinement, style becomes a simple and sophisticated way of life to which prestigious hotels aspire. This way of life is exemplified by the 1800 collection that can be found at such luxurious venues as St. Regis Venice, Hôtel la Réserve in Paris and Palazzo Margherita in southern Italy. Another hotel, Jiva Hill Resort, located in the Natural Reserve of the Jura, near Geneva, selected the Batten collection for its restaurant; the elegant simplicity of this furniture blending in perfectly with the “Nature” ambience of the hotel. From gardens…...

From one landscape to another Whatever the season, all our collections fit in naturally in the diverse range of landscapes where the outdoor lifestyle manifests itself.
