What will our homes enjoy in the new year? We have a few new creations from renowned brands that have devised novel ways to entice house-proud homeowners. From striking beds to plush sofas, there’s something new for everyone.
Turri
The “Azul” home is a bed devised for Turri by preeminent Italian designer Paola Navone. Navone added this new bed design to the existing Azul Home where she designed the grey velvet sofa and pink powder armchair. The bed is made from entirely hand-woven fabrics. The fabric expresses a three-dimensional geometry only achieved through artisanal handicrafting. The bed’s embracing bedhead gives one a protective feeling.

There is also Matteo Nunziati’s “Domus” sofa, where the new green hue evokes a figurative sense of something new, hopeful or sprouting. The sofa comes in four different iterations: an armchair, two-seater, three-seater and four-seater system. These designs are stocked and distributed by Marquis Singapore.

Wittmann’s Novelties Spring 2024 is all about creating stylish comfort. Through its two key designers — Philippe Nigro and Federica Biasi — the spring 2024 products are a combination of distinctive design and masterful craftsmanship.
Nigro’s “Joseph” club armchair is an interplay of quilted design and an inviting structural shape where the backrest and seat welcome the sitter. Nigro’s “Adele” classic dining chair expresses a strong character through its milled notches. The minimalist and elegant dining table gives the natural form a distinctive personality.

On the other hand, Federica Biasi’s “Bun” swivel armchair offers a low embracing, laidback form. Its swivelling feature makes sitting even more inviting. The sculpted backrest and thick hemming work at the seams make this seat stand out.
Sebastian Herkner’s “Morton” compact armchair and dining chair also got a new update in proportions. The eye-catching shape of the armchair, with a nod to chic upholstery material, elevates its comfort and style. The dining chair version is also distinctive in style and embracing in nature.

The new swivel-top versions of Bonaldo’s “Torii ST”, “Mellow”, and “Pivot” are an ode to convivial dining as more and more people embrace the concept of “being together”. The union of ceramic and wood crafted into a circular shape is finally translated into a suggestive meeting of the East and West.
