In September of 2024, a new product was launched, Platero, which is a combination of a side table and a classic pouffe. It is a symbiosis between the Andalusian artisan world of sculptors and image-makers and the new ideas of contemporary interior design.

Its warm wooden structure, colourful fabrics, comfort, functionality and bold design make this product one with the intrinsic esPattio hallmark: Light, Colour and Warmth.

Would you like to know all the details, what colours it is available in, the story behind this design, and the history behind this design? Join us on this ride and discover the guts of this seat!

Platero and his equestrian inspiration

This original piece finds its inspiration in the world of horses and the rural traditions of our land. Its shape, imitating a rocking horse, fills with life, nostalgia and originality any workspace or restroom where it is located. It is designed by Dsignio.

Such is its equine profile, which, to make the most of it, the whole team travelled to Jerez de la Frontera, specifically to the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art, to get to know in detail the twin spirit of this seat: the Andalusian horse.

In the photographic session, you can see how this original pouffe was perfectly adapted to the architecture and magnificence of the palace, the school’s headquarters, giving unforgettable images, face-to-face with the grace and splendour of some of the best examples of this prestigious school.

The Light, Colour and Warmth of Platero

Despite being a new design, it has all the features that you can find in the brand’s products. In its design, we see three parts: its wooden structure, its fabrics and its back handle.

The wooden structure, in beech, fills anyone who sees the product for the first time with warmth. Even though most of its structure is under the fabric, it stands out in its differential element: the side table. This table fills Platero with functionality. It can be used as a support for a laptop, tablet, notebook or book, allowing you to work or pass the time while enjoying the comfort provided by its pouffe concept.

It is the fabrics that bring out the full potential of its original and southern chromatic range, from warmer tones, such as Gorafe or Doñana, to cooler ones, such as Atlántico or Maceta. In this way, multiple customisation options are offered to adapt to the preferences of any project.

Whether you own one or intend to buy an esPattio product, you have available the finishes, upholstery and maintenance recommendations.

Its rear handle is an optional element to the standard design, i.e. it may or may not be present on the product. This handle made of Ubrique leather facilitates the mobility of the product, making it a portable design throughout the office, favouring fluid workspaces.

A design adaptable to any space

As you may already know, esPattio, a brand specialising in soft seating, offers products that break out of the classic office mould, and Platero is no exception. Its colourful and original design seeks to give a touch of modernity to workspaces or other types of spaces.

Its versatility makes it functional in an office, serving as a support for quick meetings or as part of a creative coworking space in breakout rooms, such as a waiting room or hotel reception, or convivial areas, such as an interior patio or a modern café.

Furthermore, Platero not only offers pure and simple functionality but also provides design to the point that, as a decorative element alone, it is an essential value for any space that you want to furnish with a different, colourful and modern touch.
