Salone del Mobile 2025

Day2's Favourites from This Year's Showcase of Bold Ideas and Beautiful Forms

Salone del Mobile 2025 once again cemented its place as the definitive stage for innovation, craftsmanship and forward-thinking design. This year’s edition offered a fresh perspective on what’s possible when material meets imagination. At Day2 Interiors, we’ve curated our top highlights from the event – from radical reinterpretations of comfort to playful explorations of form.

Moroso: Normal/Non-Normal – Embracing the Art of Contradiction

In a daring and thought-provoking move, Moroso unveiled its Normal/Non-Normal collection – a study in embracing imperfection, spontaneity and emotional response. Created in collaboration with Patricia Urquiola, Ron Arad, Front Studio, Jonathan Olivares, and others, the collection challenges traditional ideas of uniformity and symmetry. The pieces feel alive – irregular yet inviting – celebrating the quirks and idiosyncrasies of design.

From Arad’s smooth, flowing One Page Chair inspired by folding paper (above left) to Front’s water-like compositions (above right) in the Lakelet Table, Normal/Non-Normal blurs the boundary between sculpture and furniture. It’s a visual manifesto for a more human, expressive approach to interiors.

SkLO: Poetic Glass

SkLO captivated visitors with a series of luminous new pieces crafted in their signature Czech handblown glass. Their new pendants and wall lights continue the brand’s exploration of tension, transparency and movement.

Of particular note were the Angle Pendant Lights –showcasing asymmetry in their constellation-like form and creating a distinctly organic energy. These aren’t just lighting elements; they’re dynamic, spatial experiences, with each individual piece hanging in a unique way, due to varying glass thicknesses resulting from blowing each piece by hand. SkLO’s ability to fuse fluid form with refined detail is on full display, offering inspiration for both residential and hospitality projects.

COR: The New Kagu Range – Sculptural Softness

COR Sitzmöbel introduced the Kagu chair byJehs + Laub (above) which captivates from every angle. Its charm lies in the graceful geometry of its long, conical legs and the suspended seat shell, which seems to float within the solid wood frame.

This thoughtful design gives Kagu its light, elegant presence. Add in a flexible, sprung backrest and a gently cushioned wave-sprung seat, and the result is a chair that’s as comfortable as it is visually striking. However you look at it, Kagu is a masterclass in refined comfort.

Sancal: Cita – A New Way to Gather

Sancal's Cita collection, designed by Note Design Studio, offers a minimalist yet characterful solution for social and work-oriented spaces. With benches, chairs, and tables inspired by the idea of a “cita” (meeting), the range promotes flexibility and connection. New additions include ash wood dividers that allow back-to-back bench setups—creating semi-private zones without fully closing off space. Optional power integration and practical coat hooks enhance functionality, making Cita ideal for contemporary hospitality and co-working environments.

Extremis: Outdoor Living, Reimagined

Outdoor furniture took a bold turn at the Extremis stand, where two new releases stole the show.

Cabrio (above): This convertible-inspired outdoor sofa is all about adaptability and play. With a fold-down canopy and sleek, minimalist structure, Cabrio transitions seamlessly from shaded retreat to open-air lounge. It’s a clever nod to automotive design that invites relaxation without compromising function.

Panigiri Lava: Named after lively outdoor festivals, this striking new bench combines sculptural lines with communal spirit. Its undulating, lava-stone-inspired form encourages sociability and spontaneity in public or shared spaces.

Extremis continues to lead the way in combining practicality with personality in the outdoor realm.

The Takeaway: Playful, Personal, Poetic

What ties these diverse launches together is a shared spirit of experimentation. From Moroso’s philosophical provocations to SkLO’s kinetic light forms and Extremis’ playful practicality, Salone 2025 reminded us that great design is about emotion as much as function.

At Day2, we’re excited to see how these pieces inspire new ways of living and working. For clients seeking to curate distinctive environments – whether workplace, hospitality, or home – this year’s Milan debuts offer a wealth of fresh possibilities.
