Tidal Lounger •
From $1162 AUD inc GST

The Tidal Lounger - a supremely elegant outdoor lounge chair - embodies Australia’s infamous coastline with its flowing curves and lapping lines. Tidal marks ripple up the seat base breaking into lush, rolling curves. Straight edges and tight radii give a nod to decades past.

Inspired by Australia’s surf culture, Trent Jansen applied science to his design by researching wave formations and linear diagrams. Studying the energy and pull of spiralling water spouts as part of the creative process behind the Tidal Lounger – an ultramodern outdoor lounge chair – Jansen’s design intelligence is further evidenced in material selection, form and function.

The sturdy wire frame is expertly crafted into the gently undulating frames of the collection pieces. Tidal is a masterful intersection of raw materiality and a dynamic yet lithe aesthetic.

Upholstered cushioning for seating and lounging promise enduring outdoor comfort.

All Tait pieces are made locally and come with a 5-year warranty.

TIDAL COLLECTION INSPIRATION

Wave Formations

Wave Formations

The Tidal Collection design is based on the formation stages of a wave as it rolls toward the shore: The Tidal Sunlounge is the far out wave that slowly builds beyond the breakers. The Tidal Lounger is a curling wave at the place in the set where surfers usually lurk; and the Tidal Chair is the close-out that breaks on the sand. This collection makes use of the waves at the heart of Australian beachside culture and transforms these ephemeral forms, created by the tide and the sand, into sculptural, functional objects.

How to care
for your Tidal Lounger

General Care
CARE & MAINTENANCE

At Tait, we make products for life. Our products are crafted from high-performance materials designed to withstand the elements across our diverse Australian climate zones. We make design decisions with both form and function in mind, combining timeless and cutting-edge designs with beautiful finishes in order to elevate your outdoor (or indoor) experience.

Our collections are handcrafted from weather-resistant materials, making each piece a durable choice. In order to maintain their look and feel over time, Tait items need ongoing care and maintenance. The frequency of maintenance will vary depending on the level of care you want to provide, your personal standards and requirements as well as the environment within which the product lives.

Please refer to the care instructions relevant to the specific materials and finishes of your product, and take note of the warranty details to understand the parameters.

Warranty

We finish making our products by hand, and know they can live a long and useful life when equally cared for in your hands. For those rare occasions where it’s needed, we offer a 10-year structural warranty (Australia only), made possible by the stringent quality control standards within our factory on Wurundjeri Land in Thomastown, Victoria.

The warranty does not cover:

  • Damage from mishandling, mistreatment, abuse or lack of maintenance.
  • Natural ageing, general wear and tear and fading.
  • Damage from organic or man-made matter including mineral deposits, soils and fertilisers; or from the build-up of environmental mould.
  • Corrosion spots at the weld joins (which do not affect the structural integrity of the product and are a natural outcome of the material used).
  • Corrosion of steel furniture and parts as a result of hard seafront or chlorinated environments.
  • Any variations in colour, shade or gloss levels of finishes including stone tops and timbers.
  • Changes of heart based on personal preference.
  • Transportation costs for replacement parts/products, or labour costs for repair (these are charged at our discretion)
    Goods that have been held in storage for any period (due to the potential impact of environmental extremities in certain storage facilities).
  • Tait offers a 1-year warranty on upholstery, this includes foam and finishing (stitching, zips etc).
The above Tait warranty terms are accepted by the customer and end-user upon order and supply.
