Objects where geometry, texture, and colour meet in harmony
Miniforms presents a fresh take on contemporary seating with Nebula Monaco, balancing a dense, enveloping form with the lightness of upward-reaching lines. Inspired by cloud-like shapes, its identity is defined by distinctive teardrop arms. Available in multiple variations with different base options, it adapts to diverse interiors. Crafted from fully recyclable polyurethane, it combines expressive design with a conscious and sustainable production approach.

Glas Italia introduces a new approach to storage with Layers, designed by Nendo. The piece explores transparency and layering through white matt extralight lacquered glass, while coloured sliding doors overlap to create shifting chromatic effects that partially conceal the shelves. Available in warm and cool tones, it balances visual lightness with a clear, structured form, combining functionality with a subtle sense of movement and depth.

Marset reimagines the traditional table lamp with Gambosa, exploring a refined balance of form. Designed by Mathias Hahn, it distills the lamp into essential elements, forming a minimal yet sculptural composition. A curved shade, slender stem, and flat base act as distinct volumes, creating lightness and tension. Available in various colours and finishes, it shifts from subtle to expressive while maintaining a clear, recognisable identity.

Mae Engelgeer’s STAGE for cc–tapis translates digital gestures into rugs, turning mirrored patterns into ethereal compositions. Made from wool, silk, and linen, layering and texture create a serene, dreamlike environment. Soft pastel palettes enhance Engelgeer’s poetic aesthetic, elevating her signature atmospheric style into a visually immersive spatial experience.

+Kouple introduces the Taitō Pouf, blending simplicity with a distinctive, non-standard form. Designed by Dan Vakhrameyev, Taitō meaning “equivalent” in Japanese reflects balanced volumes through a square-cylinder silhouette. Launched at Design Nation Berlin 2025, it comes in two sizes that complement each other, equally shaping and enhancing the surrounding space with harmony, clarity, and a strong sense of visual balance.

Tacchini’s Additional System, designed by Joe Colombo in 1967, combines six cushion sizes inspired by 1960s ergonomics. Its versatile modules enable flexible, inventive seating as armchairs, poufs, or daybeds. Developed with the Joe Colombo Archive, this re-edition remains strikingly “futuristic” over 50 years later.
