High above the city, where the noise fades and the breeze arrives first, hotel rooftops are writing a new chapter in hospitality design. More than terraces with a view, they’re becoming vibrant cultural hubs: spaces where local identity meets cosmopolitan energy, relaxation blends with experience and the everyday becomes unforgettable. Designing a rooftop today is an act of sensitivity. It means reading the context, engaging in a dialogue with the surrounding landscape—be it urban or natural—and responding to new ways of enjoying free time. The rooftop now defines a hotel’s identity, sets it apart and turns it into a destination. In this transformation, hospitality furniture plays a crucial role. It must go beyond function—inspire, stir emotions, and endure the elements. At Resol, we understand this well. With decades of experience designing contract furniture for high-performance spaces, we’ve embraced the codes of contemporary design without losing sight of our roots: a Mediterranean essence—a way of life and design that values simplicity, warmth, attention to detail and respect for the environment. .
Collections that elevate the outdoor experience
Among our latest collections, BRISA stands out: a modular, elegant and versatile sofa system, designed by Resol Studio, that meets the demands of modern design. Its backrests and arms are made from recycled polypropylene with fiberglass and UV protection; its cushions feature acrylic fabrics by brands like Bliss and Crevin, engineered to withstand outdoor use while maintaining softness and colour. The seat is filled with Biotech foam, crafted from recycled materials through sustainable processes.
For poolside areas or rooftop solariums, the Anthea Poolbed is a standout piece designed by Monica Armani. With its clean lines, perfectly balanced proportions and lacquered stainless steel frame, this sun lounger offers adjustable reclining and a visually light silhouette that blends effortlessly into a variety of outdoor settings. Its seat is made of Batyline fabric, specially engineered to withstand UV rays and outdoor conditions, ensuring long-lasting durability without compromising comfort. Available in black, white, green, light blue and red, it adapts naturally to different environments—from sleek urban rooftops to serene terraces by the sea.
And when it comes to bold, character-driven design, the Woody Lounge is that inviting armchair that makes you want to stay. Designed by Josep Lluscà, its enveloping shape and well-balanced proportions make it ideal for both lounging and conversation. Made from injected polypropylene with fiberglass and finished with UV protection, it’s built to endure outdoor use while maintaining its refined appearance. The Woody Lounge is available with a fully upholstered seat or with optional cushions for the seat and backrest, upholstered in solution-dyed acrylic fabric, offering extra comfort and a versatile colour palette suited to both vibrant and more subdued atmospheres. The perfect piece to create cosy, intimate corners within open-air terraces
Today, hotel rooftops are no longer just for guests. Increasingly, they open up to the city: cocktail bars, pop-up dinners with guest chefs, sunrise yoga sessions… Rooftops have become hybrid spaces, where tourism and local life naturally intertwine. A dynamic setting that calls for versatile, durable and characterful design, just like the outdoor solutions offered by Resol, crafted for the new ways we live and enjoy life outside.
