GANDIA BLASCO

Modern Outdoor Furniture

Gandia Blasco was founded in Valencia, Spain by José Gandía-Blasco in 1941. The company operated as a blanket manufacturer until the 1990s when it was reinvented by Gandia-Blasco’s son José A. Gandía-Blasco Canales. Inspired by Ibiza’s vernacular architecture, the Mediterranean lifestyle, and his own need for outdoor furniture, Gandía-Blasco Canales focused the company’s efforts on luxury outdoor furniture.

Na Xemena, the company’s first outdoor furniture collection, garnered distinction for its ability to respond to canons of timelessness and universality. Its streamlined, purely architectural design, made using a patented construction system of aluminum profiles combined with polyethylene, opened market niches that had never existed before, enabling the company to expand across the globe. Today, Gandia Blasco outdoor furniture is distributed in more than 90 countries on five continents.

Pure design with architectural lines defines the personality of Gandia Blasco’s creations. More than furniture, these pieces are fresh, elegant products that complement each other and their outdoor settings.
