The Malawi Two Seater - Green Alga
by Eddy Roothaert, Studio Bizar
Morning air moves lightly across The Malawi Two Seater, where this outdoor two seater sofa brings a sense of balance through scale and material. Its presence feels steady and welcoming, shaped for terraces, garden corners, or sheltered balconies.
Built to support everyday outdoor use, the sofa functions as a comfortable place for shared seating without formality. The cushions are filled with quick-dry foam and wrapped in outdoor fabric, allowing them to dry quickly and remain supportive after exposure to sun or light rain. The proportions encourage ease, offering enough depth to settle in without overwhelming the space. The structure is formed from solid teak wood, expressing the character of handcrafted teak outdoor sofa pieces through natural grain and tone.
To maintain its warmth and rich tone, simply apply a light coat of oil periodically. Kindly note that this piece follows a considered production process, with an estimated shipping time of 8-12 weeks.

The Idea
The Malawi Two Seater - Green Alga was drawn for The Duna Collection — which meant working inside the collection's rules before anything else: one material family, honest thickness, and no detail that exists only to be looked at.
The prototype went through the workshop three times. What survived is the version where nothing further could be taken away without the piece stopping working.
The Designer
Eddy Roothaert spends more time with suppliers than with drawings. If a timber cannot be traced, it does not enter a Studio Bizar collection.
That discipline sets the boundary the rest of the design work happens inside.
