So often overlooked, outdoor areas like the balcony, patio or backyard lacking in ambience or proper furnishings can be less than desirable to relax in. However, with the right furniture and decor, this space can live up to its potential of being a lounge-worthy haven or even better, an extension of your home for informal dining and entertaining.
Turning ordinary outdoor spaces into tranquil retreats is Dedon, a German company specialising in high-end woven outdoor furniture. Its furniture uses a sophisticated man-made fiber that is weather-resistant and aesthetically pleasing. Available at XTRA, here’s a roundup of five Dedon outdoor pieces that will bring you the same relaxing feeling you get on vacation.
Find your happy place with the Cirql Nu Lounge Chair designed by Werner Aisslinger for Dedon. Made of Dedon’s innovative invert fiber using co-extrusion, this weaving process sees the combination of two fiber colours and types into one single strand, resulting in unexpected and stunning colourways, varied textures and geometric patterns with a unique 3D effect and an almost iridescent sheen.
Why it’s great for outdoor living: Its energising colours bring an elevated presence to your outdoor space.
Designed by Arnd Küchel for Dedon, this wing armchair is characterised by its high and enveloping backrest inspired by the graceful shape and captivating hues of a butterfly. Both this exquisite chair and its matching footstool are created using distinct weaving textures and an innovative technique that emulates the lightness and flexibility of a butterfly’s wing.
Why it’s great for outdoor living: Together with its seat cushion, this cushy seat brings maximum comfort and ergonomic support to fully enjoy your outdoor space.
Named after the mushrooms foraged in Italian forests, the sculptural shape of the Porcini Side Table also takes after this mushroom commonly featured in Italian cuisine. Artistic as it is versatile, the Porcini designed by Lorenza Bozzoli features stunning colours on its base of woven fiber and nautical rope, and a high-impact industrial ceramic tabletop.
Why it’s great for outdoor living: It comes in four different sizes to easily accommodate varying dining or lounging arrangements.
Lightweight yet sturdy to withstand all outdoor elements, the Roii Armchair by Benjamin Baum maintains its beautiful and robust form with Dedon’s signature high-performance fiber woven onto its rust-resistant, powder-coated aluminum frames. Besides the armchairs in eye-catching colours, the collection comprises side chairs and lounge chairs that are equally compact and comfortable.
Why it’s great for outdoor living: It’s stackable and easy to move around to suit different social occasions.
Striking harmony with the outdoors is the organic shape of the Scoora Lantern which resembles an open shell. With an intricate weave in two colourways, the vibrantly textured lighting by Hoffman & Kahleyss Design offers soothing illumination and an evocative ambience to any setting.
Why it’s great for outdoor living: The woven structure beautifully diffuses the light source and bathes your space in serenity.
