Danao Living has spent more than two decades making outdoor furniture for some of the world’s most refined spaces. The company was founded by Larry Serge and his co-founder after both had spent years in Asia. They wanted to bring Asia’s culture of living outdoors to homes in the United States and Europe. The brand calls itself an American lifestyle company, and its guiding values are honesty, respect and real value for the customer. Its rallying idea is simple: embrace the outdoors.
Danao first earned its name in hospitality. For years its collections were found mostly at luxury resorts, including Four Seasons, Aman, Rosewood, Mandarin Oriental, Pendry and Baha Mar properties. That background shows in every piece, because hotel furniture has to look good, feel comfortable and last through constant use and the weather. Danao now makes those same resort-proven designs available for private homes, so you can create a five-star retreat on your own patio, by the pool or on the terrace.
Danao’s design is European and contemporary, built on clean lines, tailored proportions and quiet luxury. The brand works with a roster of well-known international designers, including Claudio Bellini, Toan Nguyen, Mario Ruiz, Monica Armani, Marmol Radziner, Ann Marie Vering and Simone Bonanni. Its in-house team, Danao Studio, also designs pieces. Collections draw on American, European and Asian influences, and the result is furniture that feels both timeless and current.
Each piece is made by skilled artisans in Indonesia, where generations of furniture-making know-how meet top-quality raw materials. Danao pairs warm, hand-finished teak with powder-coated aluminum, natural stone, sling mesh, and all-weather woven fibers. That mix gives each collection its own texture and character. The seating is known for extra-deep cushions made in North Carolina and wrapped in the brand’s own outdoor performance fabrics. Danao backs its aluminum, stainless steel, teak, and synthetic woven frames with a three-year warranty.
At AuthenTeak, the Danao assortment covers every part of outdoor living:
