Dedon presents Fllair, an outdoor dining collection designed by London-based designer Samuel Wilkinson. Inspired by the rugged beauty of Fiskardo, Greece, Wilkinson's debut collaboration with DEDON captures the serenity of the coast through soft, sculptural forms and a masterful woven aesthetic.
Fllair's inviting armchair and dining table reflect the seamless balance between strength and softness. A graphic braided weave, crafted from DEDON Fiber, gracefully wraps around each piece, enhancing both visual appeal and durability. The armchair's distinctive exaggerated flare offers a cradle-like embrace, reminiscent of discovering a hidden crevice along the shoreline. The dining table, designed for up to five guests, features a woven base and a round teak tabletop, radiating warmth in any outdoor setting.
Built for both intimate retreats and expansive outdoor spaces, Fllair provides a timeless aesthetic without compromising resilience. Designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, each meticulously woven piece embodies Dedon's commitment to superior craftsmanship and enduring elegance.
A design rooted in place
For his inaugural Dedon collection, Wilkinson drew inspiration from Fiskardo, a historic fishing town on the Greek island of Kefalonia. He recalls the tranquil rhythm of sailboats drifting into the harbour and the island's hidden alcoves, elements that informed the collection's flowing forms and natural hues.
'I hope the design has instant appeal and delight through its graphic aesthetic, then further delight through testing the pieces to appreciate the level of detailing of both the armchair and the round table,' says Samuel Wilkinson.
A distinctive weave and colour palette
Each piece in the Fllair collection is handwoven by Dedon's master weavers, who have created a unique semi-open weave that enhances both texture and lightness. A broad, horizontal fiber stripe echoes the natural undulations of the Greek coastline, adding depth to the design.
Available in three sophisticated colour variations—Sahara and Mahogany—the collection blends three harmonious tones of Dedon Fiber, bringing warmth and irresistible charm to outdoor environments.
