The design house behind the interiors of Ferrari and Maserati since 1958, Pininfarina has launched its inaugural Home Design Collection with Italian supplier, Reflex. Special guest and Reflex designer Riccardo Lucatello was in attendance to officially launch the collection.

To celebrate the synergy between automotive and home design, Barbagallo Ferrari showcased a fleet of current Pininfarina designs of Ferrari and Maserati outside the showroom and the Australian Ferrari Club displaed classic models of Pininfarina-designed Ferrari’s inside the showroom.

Guests enjoyed delicious canapés from Heyder & Shears whilst sipping on Ultimo’s signature Aperol Spritz. The Form of Speed took guests through a journey of Pininfarina, celebrating stunning Italian design and even giving guests the chance to take a drive through Italy’s most beautiful scenery in Ultimo’s custom GIF booth.

Dipped in integrity: The profound depth of Aeron Chair’s extended palette

Aeron Chair’s new shades, Nightfall and Jasper, arrive with a sense of quiet cohesion – no bells and whistles, no loud technicolour; just two timeless, perfectly versatile near-neutrals. But the new hues aren’t just about colour – and their significance is much more profound than their surface-level subtlety might suggest.
