POLIFORM
Like a portal giving us a glimpse into designs of the future, the Drop mirror by Poliform is a curvaceous must-have for the home. It’s big, coming in at a sizeable 1200mm in diameter – it’s a bit like a piece of art combined with all the functionality of a mirror. The frame is stitched and bound in leather, which extends onto the hanging strap, too – oh, and the fixing details are described as ‘glossy brass’. How refined and just plain lovely.

LEMA
Furniture brand Lema specialises in ‘furniture systems’ but on a whole other level of design. However, it’s this, the somewhat simple in construction Ombra chair, which is the pinnacle of Lema’s 2022 collection. Described by the brand as ‘poetic in essentiality’, the chair has a red-painted frame and leather ‘shell’. Rarefied, refined and so very red. If you’re looking for a future classic, then this is it.

GALLOTTI&RADICE
Seating can be just as sculptural as storage as this new Monete side table design from Gallotti&radice shows. It’s almost galactic and looks like it’s just landed (which, it kind of has as it’s brand new for 2022). Designed by Massimo Castagna, it’s made in burnished metal, which has a naturally spotted and irregular finish – texture galore! Each one, with its curved edges and formations, is entirely unique.
