MILANO BOOTH
Softer is about well-being, time well spent and above all, our humanity expressed through a soft strength which we relate to values such as warmth, stillness, authenticity, empathy, respect, and balance. Distinct from the increasing acceleration of digital culture, softer creates spaces that are sensorial and enriching, spaces to come back to yourself.
As part of our ongoing collaboration with Arper we orchestrated the translation of the Softer Concept into the Milano booth and the communication. We worked with Maio Architects to develop a new interpretation of their Design Concept for Arper’s booth but with a softer approach. For each vignette we defined a different expression for a softer space based on Arper’s environments: co-working, lounge, learning space, library, office, home, lounge, meeting rooms, outdoor, and restaurant. To do so, we designed the mood, furniture display and background color of the vignettes and worked with Leandro Favaloro to define Styling that helped stage an empathetic and human experience of our environment.
As tribute to Catifa, which we consider the seed of the Softer idea, we designed an expressive installation at the entrance of the booth as a statement and introduction to the theme. Last but not least, for the News catalogue and web we defined the concept, art direction of photography, and texts for existing/new products.
We directed and orchestrated all of these elements (concept, architecture, vignettes, styling, graphics, text) to generate an atmosphere that is emotional, poetic, and evocative.

STACY
High performance in a quiet gesture, the stacking chair has grown up.

Discrete and distinguished, Stacy lends sophistication to modular seating needs.

CYCLA
The distinguishing feature of the Cycla armchair is its backrest: the curved silhouettes of the frame, which also delineate the armrests, defines a back element that widens gently at the top, graphically replicating the shape of a blooming flower.
The Cycla armchair is stackable and is suitable for both residential and contract settings. Backrest and legs in extruded aluminium and seat in die-cast aluminium. Interwoven with weather-proof polyester rope.
