Timeless Relax club armchair
TIMELESS is GANDIABLASCO’smost timeless outdoor furniture collection, made entirely of aluminium, the brand’s characteristic material.
This new version of the TIMELESS relax club chair and the TIMELESS relax pouf that complements it, are the pieces with the most character in the collection. They are distinguished by their elegance and sobriety. The relax armchair is an outdoor club armchair made with hand-welded aluminium profiles and available in all the brand’s powder-coated colours, from classic tones (white, anthracite, sand, bronze, cement gray…) to intense shades. Tones that, when combined with the different upholstery options that embellish the cushions and pillows, bring distinction and freshness to any outdoor space.
It is a designer club armchair that you can enjoy inside or outside your home. The quality upholstery fabrics by Dedar Milano, Sunbrella and Kvadrat, among others, are available in different finishes whose texture reminds us of upholstery used for interiors.
The TIMELESS relax club armchair is a unique design by José A. Gandía-Blasco and Borja García for GANDIABLASCO.

About José A. Gandía-Blasco Canales
José Antonio Gandía-Blasco Canales was born in Ontinyent, Valencia. After studying law at the Valencia University, he joined the family business Gandia Blasco, a blanket manufacturer.
After travelling throughout Spain as a business agent, he began to work on responsibilities in the company. With the help of Marisa Gallén and Sandra Figuerola, designers, Gandia Blasco reshaped the image of the company. The current logo was created, the silhouette of a graceful kitten, as well as the first reversible design carpet collection, which later received the IMPIVA Award 1990 for innovation.
The building of his summer residence in Ibiza in 1996 and the need to furnish the house with outdoor furniture that would match the architectonic concept, took José A. to take a closer look at furniture design for the first time. In close collaboration with the architect, they developed the "Na Xemena" collection which is still the outdoor furniture reference of the company Gandia Blasco. The consolidation of this new product line contributed to the diversification strategy of the company.
In 1999 he inherited the company, and started with the definitive structural change.
José A. managed to lead the activities of a solvent family business towards the international benchmark it is today. Experimenting and innovating with materials and shapes, he has been able to turn the ideas of a lover of the Mediterranean culture into a brand image and lifestyle which are well known on the five continents.
Besides being the company president, Jose A. is also its artistic director. He has designed a great majority of the furniture and textile collections that GANDIABLASCO now sells around the world: the ‘DNA’, ‘DNA Teak’, ‘Clip’, ‘Lipstick’ and ‘356’ outdoor collections, accessories such as the ‘Picnic Deckchair’ and ‘Clack! Chair’, as well as a line of lighting products. He has also designed a wide variety of pieces of furniture as part of his vast Outdoor Spaces collection: ‘Daybed’, ‘Sofa Pergola’, ‘Merendero’, ‘Tipi’, as well as their modules and enclosures. He has also designed rugs such as ‘Pack’, ‘Peineta’, ‘Hidra’, ‘Círculos’, ‘Champiñones’ and the ‘Piedras’ duvet, all of which are easily identifiable with the GANDIABLASCO lifestyle.
About Borja García
He was born in Valencia in 1980. He studied a Technical Engineering degree in Industrial Design in Cardenal Herrera-CEU University and collaborated with various local studios. He went to Milan in 2001 to finish his training in the Design Continuum Italia studio. In 2002, he founded the Nazca studio with Joaquín García and Esther Tornero, which undertook industrial design projects.
Together they participated in the first edition of Salón NUDE and other exhibitions in Valencia and Barcelona. After launching various products on the market and winning national and international awards, the three partners went their separate ways two years later. It was at this time that he decided to become independent and set up the Borja García Studio. Since that time, he has been undertaking industrial and communication design projects, has won several national awards and has participated in exhibitions in Tokyo, Milan, St-Etienne, Shanghai, Beijing, Sao Paulo, Fortaleza, Athens, Lisbon, Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia. In parallel, he studied architecture at the university of Valencia and founded the Enproyecto Arquitectura studio with Jorge Cortés and Sergio Gª-Gasco in 2005. This studio carried out ephemeral architecture projects for companies such as Puntmobles, Canal +, Vondom, Aidima as well as participating in several editions of Casadecor Valencia.
He spent the rest of his time between small scale residential architecture and commercial spaces. Leaving Enproyecto Arquitectura in 2011, he reunited both disciplines of industrial design and architecture under his own single brand, offering professional services in both sectors. In parallel, he started teaching in 2006 in Cardenal Herrera-CEU University, where today he is a project lecturer in the Industrial Design and Architecture degree courses.
