The return of the Salone del Mobile Milan has brought us the very best from the design world. With it, we’ve curated a quick list of the latest releases from some of our favourite brands. From benches to lighting design, here’s your sneak peek into Milan.
Versatile in any environment, RUT from Blå Stationadapts with its assembly of any amount of seating modules you need. For comfort in a laid-back space or formality in a productive environment, RUT is the evolution of the sofa. The contrast between its soft and generous seating modules and the solid oak supports brings us that step closer to the future workplace.
In a collaboration of two top Italian brands, Kartell and illycaffè, Re-chair does what the name suggests. Made entirely from waste coffee capsules, this new chair in sleek black is the next step into sustainable design. With subtle curves and designed for support, the Re-chair modals what the circular economy can be.
Dripping with a psychedelic vision, Melt brings our world into the world of Dichroic filters. With highly technical coatings created initially by NASA, multiple colours shimmer through white light in a kaleidoscope of bubble-esque spheres.
Through the weaves of leather, one can see the delicate harmony the MO Bridge Bench harbours. Three simple features craft together this refined design, with the leather weave, wide solid wood top, and slim metal legs bringing minimalism to the forefront of everyone’s mind.
Sometimes simplicity is all it takes. Inspired by nothing more than four quarter circles and side panels, designer Luc Jozancy’s emblematic style fits in any home or workplace. The assembly of the four panels can be woven into any interior, with bright colours lighting any space.

Elevate any space with statement lighting to illuminate and inspire.
Within the intimate confines of compact living, where space is at a premium, efficiency is critical and dining out often trumps home cooking, Gaggenau’s 400 Series Culinary Drawer proves that limited space can, in fact, unlock unlimited culinary possibilities.
To honour Chef James Won’s appointment as Gaggenau’s first Malaysian Culinary Partner, we asked the gastronomic luminaire about parallels between Gaggenau’s ethos and his own practice, his multidimensional vision of Modern Malaysian – and how his early experiences of KFC’s accessible, bold flavours influenced his concept of fine dining.
In design, the concept of absence is particularly powerful – it’s the abundant potential of deliberate non-presence that amplifies the impact of what is. And it is this realm of sophisticated subtraction that Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series so generously – and quietly – occupies.
What a week! With so many events still to come, Jan Henderson gives us a taste of what the 2025 edition has been like so far.
Ross Gardam’s installation, LUMINESCENT DUALITY, was a Milan 2025 standout. We took a tour of the space with the Australian designer to gain some deeper insights into the pieces on show.
