5 New Design Items for the Home You’ll Love
Get inspired to elevate your living space with some of the latest design marvels! Explore the new releases from some of the best design firms, including LondonArt's dreamlike wallpaper collection, Living Divani's timeless Ticino chair, and much more.
As the new year unfolds, it brings with it fresh decoration trends, introducing new concepts to our interiors and often breaking away from what we've seen so far. However, to give a fresh and renewed touch to our homes, it is not always necessary to change our entire decor. A new armchair, a new coffee table, or a spectacular wallpaper on one of the walls in your living room can completely change the look of your home.
Let's take a look at five new releases from some of our favorite design firms that will catch the eye of any interior design enthusiast.
LondonArt's New Wallpaper Collection
The renowned wallpaper company LondonArt recently presented the second part of its collection "One Thousand and One Nights" in Paris during the latest edition of Maison&Objet. Known for collaborating with brilliant creatives worldwide to create absolutely spectacular motifs, the new line explores a very special, dreamlike world loaded with organic patterns.
Designed by Nicola Bottegal and Pj Natuzzi, the collection is rich in oriental references and sensory elements, featuring high-impact images and sophisticated color palettes. These wallpapers are undoubtedly destined to become the true focal point of any space.
Living Divani's Ticino Chair
Designer Lukas Scherrer, in collaboration with Living Divani, introduces the Ticino chair, inspired by an old chair from his grandmother's house. True to the classic chair that inspired it, Ticino is a classic design but dramatically simpler. Scherrer aimed to simplify the form to the maximum, achieving a result that is traditional and timeless yet with a contemporary touch.

Despite its simple design, the Ticino chair is ergonomically crafted to support the human body, with a curved silhouette that adapts perfectly to the back. The thin, slightly curved legs create an elegant silhouette, suitable both for the kitchen and sophisticated dining rooms.
Molteni&C's Aster Coffee Table
Molteni&C stands at the pinnacle of Italian design, producing brilliant designs with the highest level of craftsmanship. Designed by Vincent Van Duysen, Molteni&C now introduces the Aster coffee table. This new proposal fantastically reflects the ability of the artisans that collaborate with the firm. Each piece goes through the hands of four different workers in multiple processes to achieve an organic and artisanal –yet perfect– result.

The design is clean and elegant, featuring a textured glass surface on a metallic pedestal. The brass base, created from an organic mold, has an almost hammered finish, providing a texture that complements the upper glass. Everything is done by hand, giving each piece a unique character.
Fornace Brioni's New Finishes
Beyond furniture and decorations, interior and exterior finishes are essential for designing an attractive and welcoming space. Fornace Brioni, a family-owned company producing handmade terracotta tiles since 1920 in Italy, introduces its first collection specifically designed for outdoor use.

The colors of the "Giardino all’Italiana" (Italian garden) collection are the most striking aspect, with greens, warm earth tones, and even blues arranged in a delicate geometric pattern produced by tiles of three different shapes and sizes. Whether at the bottom of a pool (in shades of blue), in patios, porches, or even the interior of an entryway, mudroom, or kitchen, these resilient colored clay tiles will add a fun touch to any space.
Miniforms' Plauto Dining Table
A favorite, the Miniforms brand presents new versions of its Plauto dining table. The robust and elegant design, where wood takes center stage, is a perfect addition to the company's catalog and has the potential to be a powerful player in the decoration of a modern dining room or spacious dining-living area.

In essence, the design is simple: a wide wooden surface with two sturdy almond-shaped pillars. However, the effect is spectacular due to the scale and quality of the materials. It is also available in an XXL version—the enormous Plauto Maxxxi—or in Monoplauto (with a single pillar) and Monoplauto Maxxi (with pillars parallel to the upper board). All models have been created by designers Paolo Cappello and Simone Sabatti.
