For the first time, Tait reveals a new lounging typology, the Zephyr Lounger, designed by prominent Australian designer, Charles Wilson. The nautically-influenced lounger features windswept, graceful lines and offers cool comfort through its sling-style design and breathable canvas.
The Spring/Summer 2021 collection also presents a landmark collaboration for the brand titled, ‘Woven Skies’, with Indigenous textile house, Willie Weston. The collaboration features high-performance outdoor fabric prints produced through Indigenous-owned arts centres in some of the most remote parts of Australia, including, Ampilatwatja, the Tiwi Islands and Fitzroy Crossing. Each print celebrates the artists’ connection to native plant life and seasonal changes, and feature across Tait’s iconic Australian designed and made pieces.
Overlooking the tea tree-lined dunes and majestic rocky outcrops of Blairgowrie’s back beach, Horizon Lines feels right at home. Situated at the tip of Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, the exposed environment speaks to the collections resilience and high performance in the extreme coastal elements. Employing corrosion-resistant metals, dimensionally stable timbers, reticulated and mould-resistant foams and exterior-grade fabrics, each piece has been designed and made to enjoy a long life. Dressed in warm and welcoming tones of eucalypt green’s and woody grey’s, and complemented by hints of earthen reds, the collection presents a palette that is both timeless and of the moment.
