For more than a century, Poltrona Frau has built its reputation on craftsmanship, material excellence, and an enduring approach to design. Founded in 1912 and headquartered in Tolentino, Italy, the brand continues to create furnishings that balance heritage with innovation.
Its “True Over Time” collection reflects the idea that lasting design is measured not only by quality, but by meaning. Designed to accompany life across generations, these pieces become repositories of memories, gestures, and personal stories—growing richer with time and use.
A classic Art Deco design from the Dior archives finds new expression in the Godron collection by Cordelia de Castellane. Spanning porcelain tableware and decorative objects, the collection brings the graphic elegance of the Godron into contemporary living. Joining Dior’s permanent home offerings, it demonstrates how archival designs can continue to resonate through objects made for everyday use.
Material transformation takes center stage at the LOEWE Craft Prize 2026, where South Korean ceramist Jongjin Park’s Strata of Illusion received this year’s top recognition.
Blurring the boundaries between softness and solidity, the piece takes on the form of a distorted, seemingly collapsing couch that challenges perceptions of weight and structure.
Using thousands of sheets of paper coated in porcelain slip, folded and compressed by hand before firing, Park creates a ceramic surface that resembles layered strata—turning an intricate process into a study of form, texture, and illusion.
Celebrating the legacy of Verner Panton, Louis Poulsen’s Aisle of Light reintroduces the original Panthella colors in a playful tribute to one of design’s most recognizable icons.
First introduced in 1971, the Panthella challenged convention with its organic mushroom-like form, expressive palette, and innovative approach to light. More than five decades later, the Panthella Originals collection returns in its original red, orange, yellow, blue-grey, and brown hues, staying true to Panton’s bold vision.
Presented by Focus Global, the installation transforms everyday nostalgia into a colorful design experience—showing how light, form, and color continue to shape the way we experience spaces.
