We are offering a review of the new products by Miniforms presented today at the Salone del Mobile Milan 2018, including the IOLA, ARIEL and MARIOLINA seats, and the new table with copper-finish structure and a new collection of wall mirrors. Design products with clean and essential lines with a wide choice of trendy finishes ready to be inserted in any context of modern furnishing.
Playing with the wide range of colors from the most vibrant to the classic, you say goodbye to boredom and welcome to the style that allows you to live in total freedom as if you were on vacation.

Ariel Chair Miniforms.

Iola Chair Miniforms.

Mariolina Chair Miniforms

A chair apparently simple but designed for a lifestyle that is no longer there.
A table that makes you feel good and that gives great value to the living room but the link with the kitchen survives.
A table that has the ability to be him to choose you and not you to choose him.

“Invitation ticket for an important dinner: Do not wear elegant clothes, there are them: Iola, Ariel, Mariolina with their elegance will make you live a dream dinner.
He, Them, must understand them.
They, “make up” chairs: after years of black and white, they said: pass a little blush, go. The result: it’s not bad, as in the fifties.
He, toh, for once an effort for me too, for my poor legs that can relax without taking up too much space. But, don’t worry, you won’t trip, on the contrary I’ll make sure that you’ll be comfortable.

The conclusion of this new collection, presented for the first time at the Salone del Mobile 2018 in Milan: simple in appearance but intellectually sophisticated, almost an elegy. Where the only concession to luxury does not stand out: “Me, the mirror”.

Breakfast in America

Breakfast is the first and the most important meal of the day. Let’s discover the most suitable tables for a perfect “Breakfast in America”!

Small, square, round or oval. These are some features for an ideal table insertable in a kitchen or in a narrow dining room.

Gualtiero Table Miniforms

Eaten in the early morning before going to work, breakfast is so important for health because it gives the energies needed to face the day. Usually breakfast is consumed in the kitchen, a warm and cosy place where the whole family gathers at the table before going to work, school, etc…. To furnish a kitchen, wood and pastel lacquered colours are preferable in order to make the environment more comfortable.

Geronimo Table Miniforms.

The square shapes, both fixed and extendable if the family is large, are preferable thanks to their practicality and versatility because they can be inserted in any environment and style of furniture. If the family nucleus is composed of only two people, the table with round shape is ideal: chic, modern and space-saving, which can easily be reused as a coffee table in a living room.

Illo Plus Table Miniforms

Illo Table Miniforms

For larger families we recommend tables with an original or oval shape, mixing various materials and/or colours in order to give a touch of vivacity to the kitchen and avoid that the environment is too heavy, without losing elegance and refinement.

Salone del Mobile Milan 2018

One of the most important international events in the furniture sector is back: Salone del Mobile Milan 2018

The 57th edition will take place from Tuesday 17th to Sunday 22nd April; the location is always the same: Fiera Milano Rho.

This 2018 edition promises to be a new starting point. As proof of the fact that every beginning requires reflection and commitment, the first Manifesto of the Show was drawn up: a document summarising and stressing its strengths and the elements of interconnection with the city, in order to follow up the process of internationalization undertaken and to give the design community some design points for the near future. The Salone del Mobile is a system of connections, creativity and innovation. In a week, over three hundred thousand people converge in the Lombard capital, including entrepreneurs, journalists, collectors, intellectuals, critics, designers, architects, creatives, knowledge workers and simple lovers of beauty. They meet each year in a place that welcomes them with a network of opportunities, so we can talk about a global experience, not just a fair, which attracts not only operators directly involved, but also those who do not operate in the sector. The figures for the new, imminent edition are very significant: more than 205,000 square metres of net exhibition area and more than 2,000 exhibitors – 650 of which are designers at the Satellite Exhibition – with a 22 per cent of foreign companies. Five events will be held at the same time, open to operators every day from 9.30 am to 6.30 pm, and on Saturdays and Sundays to the public. The Salone Internazionale del Mobile and the Salone Internazionale del Complemento d’ Arredo, divided into the stylistic categories “Classic: Tradition in the Future”,”Design” and “xLux”, will take to the field with the biennial Euro Cucina (and its side event FTK – Technology For the Kitchen) and International Bathroom Exhibition, as well as the Salone Satellite.

Eurocucina Salone del Mobile 2018

Salone del Mobile also means Eurocucina: from 17 to 22 April, therefore, the Fiera Milano district of Rho will host the 22nd edition of the most authoritative event in the sector, an opportunity for meeting and comparison for the best Italian and foreign companies and an ideal moment to present and discover the new trends in the most convivial space of contemporary living. For this reason, 2018, the EuroCucina Exhibition will bring together 111 exhibitors distributed over an area of 21,800 square metres in pavilions 9-11 and 13-15; it will be flanked by FTK (Technology For the Kitchen), its natural and extraordinary completion of the exhibition of technology, which there is and will be, in the built-in household appliances sector. The event’s strong points are the high quality of the products and the wide range of products, which not only reveal the novelties of contemporary cuisine but also open up interesting and fascinating perspectives on the organization and future evolution of this space.

Our Design Philosophy

Our Design Philosophy applied to your beautiful home.

Hygge is a new Scandinavian philosophy of happy living. Here is how to apply it to your home to make it warm, cozy and comfortable.

It is said that the Danes are the happiest population in the world and that the formula of well-being, for so many desirable but complex to explain, is summed up by them as “hygge”.
Hardly translatable with a single word, it indicates a mix of positive sensations that invite comfort, good living, being together and enjoying small things. And isn’t that also the truest sense of a “home”?
