KIDA Armchair

With KIDA, Stephen Burks has designed a hanging lounge chair as delightful to look at as to use. The first collection to be wrapped rather than woven in DEDON Fiber, it features a cradle-like organic form that’s open, airy, light and inviting. Once inside, users can luxuriate in KIDA’s comfy cushion, which covers the entire seating area, and feel, in Burks’ own words, “as free as the breeze” when swinging. In conceiving KIDA, Burks sought to reinvent the hanging chair. Drawing inspiration from his close collaboration with DEDON’s master weavers in the Philippines, he developed a design that looks and feels less enclosed. “The magic of being in the factory and challenging everybody to find unfamiliar ways of doing things that give a fresh and uniquely DEDON feeling to the collection is always my mission,” Burks says. With its organically shaped frame of powder-coated aluminum, KIDA is lightweight yet exceptionally sturdy. Wrapped in innovative DEDON Fiber ‘touch’, which has an especially soft tactile quality, the collection comes in three striped color ways, including the vibrant, multi-colored ‘glow touch’. KIDA features a plush seat cushion and a fixed head cushion that’s perfectly positioned for laying back and lounging.
