Samuele Mazza Outdoor is an Italian luxury outdoor furniture brand. It is a registered trademark of DFN Srl, a specialist in high-end outdoor furniture and complete outdoor projects founded in 2013 in Fano, Province of Pesaro-Urbino, Marche. Samuele Mazza — born in Palma di Montechiaro, Sicily — is an internationally renowned designer who describes himself as a contemporary dandy. He worked for Gucci, Trussardi, Gerard and Corneliani before developing his own design programme. He is the founder of the luxury brand Visionnaire (formerly IPE Cavalli). DFN produces and distributes the outdoor collection bearing his name.
The range covers lounge furniture, dining furniture, sun loungers, hammocks, outdoor kitchens, gazebos (Orangerie line), lighting and rugs — all designed for outdoor use and weather resistance. Materials include treated iron, aluminium, synthetic rattan, natural stone, marble, parchment, ceramics and UV-resistant textiles. The design programme maintains a neo-classical, glamorous aesthetic — a translation of Mazza's interior furniture language into the outdoor realm. DFN also acts as "main contractor" for complete outdoor project commissions.
Samuele Mazza Outdoor / DFN is the address for hospitality designers and landscape architects seeking a complete outdoor furniture collection for exclusive hotel terraces, resort complexes and private villas — one that combines artisanal quality with a glamorous design language under the responsibility of an internationally recognised designer personality.
