Beyond Four Walls—A New Era of Living
Architecture is evolving. Homes are no longer confined to static definitions of indoor and outdoor—instead, they are fluid, adaptable, responsive to the way we live now. The modern home is no longer about limitation but possibility. A space where the kitchen extends to the terrace, where a sunlit lounge feels as inviting as an indoor retreat, where gathering spaces shift seamlessly between open air and intimate enclosure.
This is the foundation of boundary-free living—and at its heart is Patinero.
Patinero is not just designed for one space; it is designed for movement between spaces. It is a collection that erases the traditional divisions of home, creating a seamless flow between the interior, in-between, and exterior. It is a new philosophy of living—one that embraces the way architecture, materials, and human connection evolve together.
Gary Pettitt’s Global Vision—A Design Evolution Shaped by Travel
“The greatest designs are born not from a single place, but from a lifetime of journeys.”
Gary Pettitt, the visionary behind Seasonal Living, has always believed that true luxury is not just about aesthetics, but about adaptability, movement, and a deep emotional connection to space. Having lived across four continents—from the untamed beauty of Africa to the artisan enclaves of Asia, from the European countryside to the modern vibrancy of the Americas—he saw firsthand how design evolves when it is not bound by walls, but shaped by experience.
His travels revealed a universal truth—that the most beloved homes around the world blur the distinction between inside and out, heritage and modernity, structure and softness. And this truth has only deepened in today’s world, as technology and manufacturing advancements collide with an increasingly effortless, relaxed, and refined way of living.
No longer are certain materials confined solely to indoor or outdoor spaces. Once relegated to exteriors, performance fabrics, powder-coated metals, and engineered stone now seamlessly integrate into indoor living. Likewise, the expectations of interior comfort—cushions with deep, duvet-like softness, sculptural frame silhouettes, and artisanal textures—now effortlessly transition outdoors.
As more people travel, they become exposed to this evolving blur of established and defined living spaces. The boundaries that once dictated where and how we live are dissolving. Patinero exists in this in-between space—a collection that moves between worlds, embracing luxury without borders.
From the sun-drenched fincas of Spain to the whitewashed retreats of Greece, from the rolling vineyards of Napa to the heritage homesteads of Provence, Patinero embodies the essence of these architectural influences, but in a way that is modern, adaptable, and timeless.
The Design Continuum—Luxury Without Limits
The Design Continuum is the methodical, strategic product planning framework developed by Seasonal Living to give luxury architects and designers greater freedom in their selections. It is an intentional curation of Signature and Companion Collections that ensures design flexibility, allowing professionals to procure with confidence while offering their clients a harmonious blend of colors, textures, and styles.
* Signature Collections—Stand-alone masterpieces, each embodying a unique design ethos while seamlessly integrating into a broader vision of indoor, in-between, and outdoor luxury.
* Companion Collections—A carefully curated selection of complementary furnishings that allow designers to build custom environments, layering different materials and aesthetics with ease.
* Architectural Synergy—By aligning furniture designs across multiple collections, Seasonal Living ensures that designers can create fluid, boundary-free living experiences without the struggle of mismatched procurement.
Through the Design Continuum, designers save time, reduce complexity, and gain access to a wealth of pre-curated options that make luxury design both efficient and endlessly creative.
Materiality That Moves With You
True boundary-free living requires materials that function effortlessly across multiple environments—and this is where Patinero stands apart.
* Powder-Coated Aluminum Frames—A fusion of architectural precision and soft tactility, engineered for indoor-outdoor resilience.
* Hand-Woven Polypropylene Rope—A woven comfort cradle, providing deep-seated support while adapting to movement.
* Cloud-Like Cushions—Indulgent, plush, and surprisingly structured—tested for durability yet designed for comfort.
* Agora Performance Fabrics—Soft, breathable, and resistant to the elements, bridging the gap between indoor aesthetics and outdoor resilience.
* Dekton Stone Surfaces—A seamless extension of high-end interior finishes, designed to connect outdoor settings to interior refinement.
Every material was chosen to blur the lines between spaces—to create a world where outdoor living is as comfortable as indoor retreat, and indoor retreat feels open, airy, and connected to nature.
The Future of Living—A Call to Designers, Homeowners & Visionaries
Design is no longer about confinement—it is about expansion. The world is changing, and with it, the way we define home.
Patinero is an invitation to rethink space. To remove the walls that separate us from nature, from gathering, from the experiences that make a house a home.
This is not a trend. It is a return to something instinctual, something timeless.
Because the best spaces are not dictated by walls. They are defined by the people who live within them.
