Spanish brands have interpreted the new luxury trend as the possibility to have your space in your own way. So, let’s start creating…
Let’s start with the new amazing proposals of Valencia-based KOO INTERNATIONAL, a reference in the upholstery sector. The brand showcased in Milan LUA, a small armchair designed by La Cubitera that features marked lines and a comfortable enveloping volume. It is produced in two versions: totally upholstered or with wooden legs.
TWO BE is a new concept of sofa that mix furniture and upholstery. The result is an attractive and versatile modular system to create multi-use spaces for work, leisure or to relax.
Great success for the Spanish brand MECEDORAMA that exhibited for the first time in Milan, showcasing its new ranges of amazing rocking chairs: the Hobbs, MaMeMi and Triangle families.
All models, which are all handmade, are designed, welded, painted and plaited by the firm, but pieces can also be customized to meet the specifications of clients.
Ethnic intriguing hints, suggestive projections of lights and shadows, elaborate stamps, geometrical shapes and slim designs combine in JAPAN, ICPALLI, PIÑATA and CALETTA, the new lines of seating, dining sets, sun loungers, lighting and accessories that Estudi Hac, Joaquín Homs and Esther Campos have designed for POINT.
POINT’s new collections suggest happiness, comfort and sophistication, all of them hallmarks of the stylish Mediterranean lifestyle.
2013 POINT CATALOGUE
PUNT MOBLES chose Milan to unveil its 2013 set of new collections that impressed for the high quality designs. SLATS is a free and easy system of shelves and containers, designed by Marc Krusin to adapt all need and situations. Made of solid matt oak, the WHISKEY chairs, a design by Terence Woodgate, can be stacked up but they don’t look like any other normal stackable chairs: a lot of work have been done on the frame and side rails to allow space for rear legs in order to create a product that is comfortable, smart and functional at the same.
Suitable for both home and contract use, BREDA is a collection of seating elements and occasional furniture with a strong accent on natural oak wood. Designed by Sohei Arao and made of natural wood, the series of BEVEL stools is available in different seating colours, heights and leg configurations.
On display, there were also the wooden armchair MAVA, a creation by Stephanie Jasny, and the tables BASS and TRANSALPINA, designed respectively by Borja García and CuldeSac. Featuring a minimal look, both tables are made from solid oak wood and present an extension system that makes them extremely versatile and functional.
