Milan Design Week is in full swing, showcasing the latest and greatest in furniture and design. One standout piece that has caught the attention of visitors is the Kida lounge chair, designed by American designer Stephen Burks in collaboration with outdoor furniture company Dedon.
The Kida lounge chair is a unique piece that features Dedon’s signature woven fibers, creating a visually stunning and structurally innovative design. According to Burks, the chair was originally intended to be a fully woven outdoor swing, but the final result is a fully wrapped structure that treats the fiber as surface texture and color while maintaining a lightweight frame.
The chair, along with other pieces in the Kida collection, incorporates coiled bands of fiber to create a comfortable and stylish seating option that is suitable for both residential and contract settings. The vibrant colors and unique design elements make the Kida lounge chair a standout piece at Milan Design Week.
Burks envisions the Kida lounge chair being casually dispersed in urban and natural public spaces, making it open and available to all. The chair will be on display at Salone del Mobile, Hall 9, stands L01/L03, giving visitors the opportunity to experience its comfort and style firsthand.
In addition to the Kida lounge chair, Milan Design Week is also showcasing furniture that does double duty, with pieces that can be worn as clothing and accessories. The exhibition, titled “Wearable Casa,” features seven pieces that blur the lines between furniture and fashion, offering a dynamic living experience for those who are always on the move.
With innovative designs like the Kida lounge chair and the “Wearable Casa” collection, Milan Design Week continues to push the boundaries of furniture and design, offering visitors a glimpse into the future of home decor. Don’t miss your chance to experience these cutting-edge designs at this year’s event.
