Milan Design Week 2025 | A Comprehensive Overview of the New Collections

This year marks an important milestone in Maxalto’s history: In 1975, Maxalto’s adventure began with the desire of Piero Ambrogio Busnelli, founder of B&B Italia, to create a brand that preserves, defends and perpetuates traditional craftsmanship. Under the creative direction of Antonio Citterio since 1993, Maxalto celebrates its 50th anniversary this year with two special designs.

Produced in only 50 pieces exclusively for Maxalto’s 50th anniversary, Lilum 50 turns into a canvas reflecting the calligraphic art practice of Dutch artist Patrick van Riemsdijk.
For the 50th anniversary, one of the brand’s classics, the Pathos Table, has been reinterpreted by Citterio in a special series. The Pathos 50 Table will also be produced in only 50 pieces, numbered and certified as authentic.

Born from Silvia Venturini Fendi“s fashion vision, Fendi Casa successfully brings the Fendi signature to living spaces by bringing together the most exclusive components of Italian craft. Ceriani Szostak, the young design studio of the brand, adds the Later Sofa and Armchair to the Fendi Casa collection, based on the idea of adapting the design language they saw in Fendi” s headquarters, Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, to a sofa. In addition, Soho Side Table designed by Toan Nyugen, Peekasleep Bed designed by Controvento and Twist FF Chair by Gallizioli also join the collection this year. The console unit and side table added to the Efo Seriesdesigned by Peter Mabeo draw attention with a perfect reference to the brand’s FF logo.

A philosophy, a vision, a unique approach to contemporary living: “The Cassina Perspective” is enriched again this year by an eclectic range covering a wide range of styles to create unique atmospheres. The 2025 Collection is characterized by designs that explore the link between research, innovation and superior craftsmanship, perfectly reflecting the brand’s DNA.

In honor of the 60th anniversary of the Le Corbusier®, Pierre Jeanneret® and Charlotte Perriand® Collection, Cassina is reintroducing four iconic seating systems (LC1, LC2, LC3 and LC4) – 1 Fauteuil dossier basculant, 2 Fauteuil Grand Confort, petit modèle, 3 Fauteuil Grand Confort, grand modèle, 4 Chaise longue à réglage continu – in limited-time special editions. Available for one year only, these designs will be available in three new versions in red, blue or green and with tone-on-tone upholstery.

The Cassina iMaestri Collection has another development worth celebrating: From its archives, the company has reinterpreted the 1975 Fiandra model by Vico Magistretti and brought it to the present day with a sustainability-oriented production process and innovative materials.

True joy is hidden in comfort. Promemoria’s “Joie de Vivre” (Joy of Living) collection, presented at this year’s Milan Design Week, interprets the brand’s characteristic elegance and “joy of living” theme with impeccable Italian craftsmanship.

Exteta has set a new standard by redefining the “Made in Italy” label, Italian craftsmanship and understanding of outdoor living. Exteta has quickly become the first brand that comes to mind in the field of yacht furniture and outdoor living.

This year, Exteta, an exhibitor at both Salone del Mobileand Fuorisalone, introduced its collaboration with Riva Yachts to design lovers. The collection, signed by Massimo Castagna, is based on Riva‘s history of more than 180 years, its deep-rooted heritage and original spirit. Every detail bears the traces of the elegance and craftsmanship that have permeated every creation of the Italian shipyard since 1842: From the legendary “dolce vita” era of the 1960s to the technological innovations of today, it is a tribute to aesthetics and the art of living.

Studiopepe, the design duo Studiopepe, Massimo Castagna and Paola Navone / Otto Studio, who assumed the role of Creative Director of Extetanot long before Salone, have expanded the range with brand new designs and new updates of the products in the collection.

As always, Salvatori uses Milan Design Weekas a platform to showcase new designs, collaborations and inspiring decoration ideas. This year, the brand unveils “Nagi”, a new texture designed by previous collaborators Yabu Pushelberg and “Nereo”, a new bathroom collection by Elisa Ossino.

In a collection where natural stone becomes a key element of both expression and design, the new Nereo Bathroom Collection designed by Elisa Ossino interprets natural stone with soft and majestic forms, emphasizing the sculptural aspects and precious nature of this extraordinary material. Nereo takes its name from the sea nymphs of Greek mythology, the Nereids.

“Recreating the movement of water on stone is an approach that reflects Salvatori‘s philosophy,” say George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg of the design duo Yabu Pushelberg, emphasizing that all products, from bathroom units and sinks to wall textures and floor coverings, address the fundamental relationship between water and stone. The word “nagi” (凪) is of Japanese origin and describes the stillness and calming effect of the sea.
