Groove, Extended
When a brand like Tom Dixon commits to outdoor furniture, the expectation isn’t subtlety, it’s clarity. Released in early 2025, the Groove collection marked the brand’s first full step outside, and this latest expansion builds on that foundation with confidence. The Groove Lounge Chair and new Groove Round Table extend the language of the original release, sharpening its intent while reinforcing its relevance for shared, commercial outdoor spaces. The collection signals a long-term commitment rather than a seasonal detour.
Groove’s identity is driven by surface. Concentric ribs travel across the chair and table, referencing Art Deco geometry without leaning nostalgic. The effect is graphic and tactile, creating pieces that read clearly from a distance but reward closer inspection. The lounge chair’s sunken seat and relaxed proportions soften the silhouette, while its crisp frame keeps it visually disciplined. This is outdoor furniture design that understands presence matters just as much as comfort.
Material choices do the heavy lifting. A high-gloss, outdoor-grade powder coat delivers durability, weather resistance, and color consistency across environments. Adjustable feet provide stability on uneven surfaces, while stacking bumpers protect frames during storage, small details that quietly acknowledge contract use. Coordinating cushions add flexibility without compromising the chair’s sculptural profile.
The introduction of the Groove Round Table broadens the collection’s range. Compact and adaptable, it comfortably supports two to four seats, making it easy to specify across cafés, terraces, and amenity zones. The ripple-patterned surface disguises wear and simplifies maintenance, reinforcing Groove’s suitability for high-traffic settings.
What makes this expansion matter is restraint. Groove doesn’t chase novelty. It refines a system. Like the expressive pieces highlighted in Strike a Pose, it recognizes that outdoor spaces are increasingly social, visible, and designed to perform. Groove meets that reality head-on, offering commercial outdoor furniture that feels intentional, expressive, and built to last from Tom Dixon.
