You’ve seen the lighting standouts in our Euroluce Report, and even some lesser known installation highlights. Now it’s time for more product launches that took centre stage at Milan Design Week 2025, but away from lighting and towards furniture. There is, of course, the usual caveat: Milan is simply so big that it’s impossible to capture it all. With our team there on the ground this year, however, we can bring you some of the most exciting objects that we saw, touched and experienced in Italy – so, time to covet and enjoy!
antoniolupi
Oasi is the new bathtub designed by Mario Ferrarini to transform wellbeing into a tailor-made experience. The aim here is to turn the bathroom into a place of regeneration and harmony, and – with rectangular, oval and corner versions (left or right) – the bathtub achieves a widely varying and versatile range. Oasi is made of Cristalplant®, a velvety, soft-touch material that conveys a unique sensation in contact with the body, while its contemporary form, both rigorous and organic, features gently sloping edges that flow toward the centre.

Moroso
The Sedona collection by Patricia Urquiola is named after the American town hidden among the mysterious red-rock mountains and majestic forests that border the Arizona desert. A bed, bench and pouf of generous dimensions are inspired by the region’s natural beauty and its canyons, eroded and sculpted by wind and water. “I envisioned the Sedona bed as a personal sanctuary, an ideal everyday object. The ultimate refuge in our contemporary lives,” says Patricia Urquiola. “I would like the process of choosing a bed, its comfort, and its design, to become a way to honour that delicate foundation of wellbeing that is sleep.”

Glas Italia
Ronan Bouroullec, Philippe Starck, Patricia Urquiola and Tokujin Yoshioka are just some of the prestigious names who have collaborated with Glas Italia to the new furniture collection Salone Milano 2025 (and whom we interviewed in Milan!). The Five O’ Clock Lie table by Starck (below, left) is audacious in its use of mirror, while Tokujin Yoshioka’s rotating imirror (below, right) is refined with precious grindings and carries a discrete elegance.

Zanotta
Another of our Milan Design Week 2025 interviewees features in Zanotta’s new collection. Vincen Van Duysen has put comfort to the fore with the Fedrigo sofa system, with each element crafted to offer maximum wellbeing. The backrest naturally merges with the armrests, creating a cozy embrace, while the cushions enhance ergonomic support. Generous proportions further emphasise the perception of softness, making Fedrigo both inviting and profoundly comfortable. Furthermore the sofa structure is made of plywood and expanded polyurethane with recycled polyols CIRCULARREFOAM®.

Pedrali
Blume Sideboard is a new piece of furniture by renowned and multi-talented German designer, Sebastian Herkner. Echoes a sophisticated flower-shaped profile in extruded aluminium, this piece combines storage capacity with the ability to define or divide spaces with elegance and versatility. It features four curved plywood ash wood or walnut veneered doors combined with extruded aluminium legs in a variety of anodised or power coated finishes, in addition to a composite marble or high pressure laminate top.

Talenti
For the second year in a row, we caught up with esteemed designer Roberto Palomba in Milan. He and studio partner Ludovica Serafini have signed each piece in a new Talenti Home collection in an interdisciplinary design-meets-music symphony of style and innovation. With sofas, tables, chairs, beds, cupboards and accessories each named after a great jazz, rock, pop, folk, soul and R&B artist, these pieces are designed to tell a story of style, passion and innovation.

Arper
Catifa Carta, introduced at Salone del Mobile 2024 as a reinterpretation of Catifa 53, is now available with a four-leg wooden base – reducing CO2 emissions by more than 20 per cent compared to the four-leg metal base. Notably, glues are also eliminated from the new product.
Meanwhile, Catifa 46 has been renewed in 2025 as Catifa (RE) 46 with a new shell made from 100 recycled recycled plastic, combining post-consumer and post-industrial materials. Arper is also presenting two concepts in development: a PaperShell shell prototype for Catifa 46, which will be named Catifa Carta 46, and a fully PaperShell base for Catifa Carta 53.

Humanscale
Milan 2025 saw a preview of the Diffrient Lounge chair, Humanscale’s first lounge chair, ahead of its official launch at Fulton Market Design Days in June. Designed by legendary industrial designer Niels Diffrient, Diffrient Lounge merges exceptional comfort and beauty for the modern balance of work and leisure. Designed to be a liberation from the desk, this next-generation lounge chair blurs some of the lines between living, working and unwinding. With a fully articulating back and headrest, integrated worksurface and easily accessible adjustments, Diffrient Lounge offers a complete workstation experience with a complete range of postures.
Paola Lenti
With launches both indoor and outdoor from Paola Lenti, we’ve gone with one of each. Naga, below left, is designed by Atelier Oï and features natural ash wood benches with an exquisite padded seat area. The seat area upholstery consists of a sequence of rings in mélange polyester knit fit onto the structure so as to create unpredictable chromatic effects. Alma, meanwhile (below right), is comfort objectified. Designed by Francisco Gomez Paz, it comes in armchair, two- or three-seater forms with a structure made of matte- or gloss-varnished ]stainless steel and a Rete fabric in avorio or grafite colour connected to the steel structure by means of buttons in plastic material and cords in Rope yarn.

Salvatori
Salvatori reveals Nagi, a new natural stone texture by long-time collaborators Yabu Pushelberg. Shown ahead of the official opening of Milan Design Week, the tile explores the quiet rhythms of water through a series of concentric ripples carved into marble and limestone. The texture – aptly named after the Japanese word for the stillness of the sea – is available in Salvatori’s signature stones, which include Bianco Carrara, Verde Guatemala and Pietra d’Avola. Designed as a rectangular tile, it features a wave motif that compresses and expands across the surface, allowing for vertical or horizontal installation and varied visual rhythms. Nagi is the inaugural surface texture by Yabu Pushelberg for Salvatori, extending a creative partnership that includes the Anima and Punto bathroom collections and the lauded brand’s New York flagship.

Poliform
Jean-Marie Massaud’s Adrien table, with its commanding presence and iconic conviviality, has been reimagined in a larger size in Milan this year. It’s available in both round and rectangular versions, making it a fine centrepiece for grand spaces. The structure is solid wood stained black elm, and it comes as matte and glossy lacquered colours metal or matte and glossy light sheer or dark sheer painted metal.
Magis
The Bishop chair, designed by Konstantin Grcic, is made from one-millimetre-thick steel sheet which has been laser-cut, bent and welded into a solid structure. It’s available in a variety of colours, while the design itself is simple – almost archetypal. It has four legs, a seat and a back, characterised by meticulous attention to detail. The name Bishop, meanwhile, is chosen to convey a sense of strength and presence. “I wanted to create a chair that would be instantly recognisable, but that would also reveal the details of its material and its production process,” says Grcic. “It was these qualities that attracted me to the project.”
