Papillon, designed by Giulio Iacchetti for MV Line, redefines the outdoor umbrella with a horizontal opening system inspired by the graceful motion of butterfly wings. With no central pole and minimal footprint when closed, it keeps the space beneath completely free and unobstructed. The canopy folds neatly beneath the structure, remaining protected when not in use. Papillon blends functionality, innovation, and refined design.
Available in two shapes:
Circular with a diameter of 4 meters
Square with 4-meter sides
Equipped with motorized automatic closing, operable remotely, and integrated LED lighting. It is preconfigured for wind, rain, and sun sensors, and can be connected to home automation systems. In the floor-mounted configuration, the umbrella remains stable without ground anchoring. A compact pedestal with appropriate ballast is available, or it can be fixed to the ground with a further reduction of the pedestal to its minimal form.
