Horizon, the latest outdoor collection by Weylandts, with its smoke-finished teak, woven-rope detailing and sculpted curves, speaks of landscapes and time, inviting outdoor living that is generous, adaptable and enduring.
Founded in contrast, the materials and textures in the latest Weylandts Outdoor Collection are a metaphor for harmony and balance. Through this opposition, beauty is created. The tension of the sun disappearing behind the horizon line, the jagged mountain’s edge that frames a valley, the refreshing dusk air that cools the soil after a sweltering day – that is where beauty rests.
Chris and Anna Weylandt share a heritage of design and a passion for connection. Designing each piece with long-standing suppliers as they travel through vast lands, their creative process is about more than the beauty of the pieces they create, it is about the relationships they build and the intimate knowledge they have of each material, texture, and meaning. A unique place where raw forms collide with bold designs, Weylandts is an alchemy of global ideas and local roots.
Smoke finishes on hand-selected pieces of teak, rich in oil and confident in grain, mimic the mountain curves through rigid frames. These elemental pieces are designed by Weylandts to age with the land – weathering and wearing to show the markings of their journeys.
This season also introduces new modular sofa ranges – the Paloma and Havana – designed for both outdoors and in. Generously proportioned and deeply inviting, these pieces embody the collection’s spirit of natural ease and adaptability.
Woven rope details evoke unreplicable patterns of veining leaves and indigenous thicket. Crafted to withstand and hold, these pieces carry the stories of their craft in between intertwined strands.
Complementing these ranges are their new loungers, sculpted in shape and scale, designed for languid afternoons and sun-drenched pauses. Their proportions and gentle curves echo the undulating lines of the horizon itself – relaxed, grounded, and timeless.
“I’ve seen many horizons in my life. From Indonesia to Namibia, they inspire me to think bigger. That’s how I wanted this collection to feel. Like a beautiful moment in time.” – Chris Weylandt.
