Blurring the Line Between Inside and Out – Trace Dining Collection by Tait and Adam Goodrum
Extending Tait’s passion for the outdoor realm, the Trace Dining Collection designed by Adam Goodrum is a transitional resort-style range that blurs the lines between inside and out.
As a leading name in locally-made outdoor furniture and accessories, Tait’s established reputation for quality and attention to craft is matched by the calibre of the Australian designers with whom the brand has collaborated over many years. The Trace Dining collection is a fitting addition to this esteemed lineage, presenting as a resort-style range of pieces that elevate the outdoor dining experience. Designed by Adam Goodrum, the series is imagined at the transition of the traditional distinction between inside and out, bringing a welcome vacation atmosphere to the literal doorstep.
Exploring the relationship between texture, colour and substance, the new alfresco dining range is a natural evolution of the renowned Trace Collection and continues that previous range’s focus on engineered results and performance that withstands Australia’s harsh elements. Bringing together aluminium, sustainable timbers and marbled porcelain materials, the expert craft responsible for each piece is evident, adding to its sense of strength, durability and authenticity. Delicate in proportions, the tapered legs and lightness of the collection exemplifies a refined and precise approach. The original Trace Collection’s trademark hand-finished circular corner detail is also retained as a reminder of this new range’s beginnings, while the concealed technology of the Thermoplastic feet ensures minimal impact to surfaces across a myriad of applications. Each piece is designed to be used in residential, hospitality and commercial settings, and its reference to a classical rhythm and endurance through finish shows an effortless transition across uses.
With a growing local and global client base, Tait continues to evolve, both as a brand and as a conduit for innovative and responsive design. This is not only seen in the collaborations with prominent local designers but in the commitment to sustainable principles outlined in the Tait Sustainability Statement. From the commitment that each piece is designed to last a lifetime to the use of sustainably sourced timber, continuing local manufacturing and sourcing 95% of raw materials from Australian suppliers, Tait demonstrates its dedication to both Australian industry and the environment.
The Trace Dining collection is a fitting addition to this esteemed lineage, presenting as a resort-style range of pieces that elevate the outdoor dining experience.
