Molteni&C 2025: a new chapter in the story of Italian elegance
With the 2025 Collection, Molteni&C pays a poetic tribute to the city of Milan, interpreting contemporary living through furnishings that bridge memory and modernity. Under the creative direction of Vincent Van Duysen, the collection moves fluidly between historical layers and innovative visions, drawing inspiration from archival designs and iconic projects of the 1970s and 1980s, reimagined through a refined, architectural lens.
Exploring every facet of the home—from sleeping systems to boiserie, from carpets by Marta Ferri to new dining concepts—the collection forms a cohesive and elegant universe. It’s conceived to furnish a spacious Milanese apartment with style, where heritage meets cosmopolitan flair.
At the heart of the living area are Christophe Delcourt’s new sculptural creations: the modular and refined Emile seating system, designed for open, flowing spaces, and the Eugène armchair, with enveloping, sculpted lines that embody bespoke comfort.
Small tables Odile, Lèa, Maylis, and Fleurs complete the setting with a sophisticated mix of pure forms and meticulous detailing. From fine woods and annealed glass to sculpted marble, each table offers a distinctive and elegant expression of style.
Among the notable additions to the living collection are the Lia armchair by GamFratesi—its suspended seat a testament to both aesthetics and technical finesse—and Linea by Vincent Van Duysen, featuring a trumpet base and harmonious proportions, naturally suited to both classic and contemporary interiors.
For the dining area, Molteni&C curates refined, dramatic compositions, where Christophe Delcourt’s new sculptural pieces dialogue with reissued historical bestsellers. The interplay of forms and materials creates a striking balance of contrasts and continuity, shaping environments of timeless elegance and visual impact.
Among the most captivating additions to Molteni&C’s dining collection are the new pieces by Christophe Delcourt, which blend sculptural presence with refined simplicity. The Lise table, defined by bold, material lines, is a tribute to design purity: its two opposing legs—curved and slender—intersect in a fluid gesture that brings both dynamism and lightness to the composition. A statement piece designed for spacious, elegant settings, it perfectly embodies the brand’s total living philosophy, where aesthetics and functionality coexist in perfect harmony.
Complementing it is the Pénélope console table, a more compact interpretation of the same sculptural language. Retaining the plastic elegance of the Lise table, it becomes a statement piece within the living space. Together, these creations embody the material richness and sophisticated aesthetic of the 2025 dining collection.
Alongside new designs, Molteni&C revisits a historical icon with the reissue of the Monk chair, originally designed in 1973 by Afra and Tobia Scarpa. Now part of the Heritage 2025 Collection, Monk preserves the essential, disciplined character of the original: a solid wood frame—available in American walnut, black oak, or coffee—meets tubular steel supports and a taut leather seat and back, forming a perfectly balanced composition of form and material. Burnished steel hubs add both a functional and decorative accent to its almost monastic aesthetic.
Also offered in a wider, more relaxed armchair version, Monk returns as a powerful expression of the formal language and craftsmanship that defined the collaboration between the Scarpa duo and Molteni&C—an iconic revival that unites history, quality, and authenticity.
Molteni&C also updates some of its most iconic tables with exclusive new finishes, expanding the expressive range and reaffirming the timeless sophistication of the collection.
Rodolfo Dordoni’s Filigree table—an essential bestseller—receives a new Iridium Brown structure, a velvety warm finish paired with tops in Ecotone™ stone (Sienna or Poseidon) or Eucalyptus with herringbone inlay, also available in the extendable version.
Completing the 2025 dining collection is Outline by Arik Levy, a versatile and multifaceted design offered in a variety of versions—fully upholstered, leather, or with metal legs. Enhanced cushioning adds to its comfort, blending flexibility with elegance.
Patricia Urquiola’s Diamond table introduces polished surfaces and debuts new materials, including sustainable Ecotone™ quartzite, merging aesthetics with environmental responsibility.
Vincent Van Duysen’s Mateo table is refreshed with new glossy lacquer finishes that accentuate its sculptural conical base. Available in dining and lounge versions, Mateo’s fluid proportions and rigorous aesthetic reinterpret the art of entertaining for today’s convivial settings.
In the living area, new complementary furnishings reflect the perfect synthesis of functionality and refined style. The Andromeda sideboard—designed by UniFor and Studio LSM—emerged from the evocative setting of the Andromeda Theater. It stands out for its architectural precision: polished aluminum and graphene glass form floating volumes, seamlessly joined for a sense of lightness and clarity.
Aria, a new desk by Vincent Van Duysen, reinterprets the writing desk with minimalist sophistication: sharp lines, a folded metal structure, and a top in Ecoskin (ivory or dark brown) paired with an integrated drawer secured by a hidden magnetic system. Essential yet elegant, Aria is designed to transition fluidly between home and office settings, underscoring the collection’s total living philosophy.
In the bedroom, GamFratesi’s Tibeau bed pays tribute to the tactile beauty of solid wood, interpreted through bold sculptural lines inspired by tribal forms. Evoking ancient craftsmanship and architectural solidity, the bed reflects Molteni&C’s deep reverence for noble materials and artisanal skill. Its distinctive “T”-shaped headboard anchors the piece with balance and presence, perfectly attuned to the refined, authentic spirit of the 2025 collection.
Theo, disegnato da Yabu Pushelberg, è un letto avvolgente ed essenziale, nato per offrire un’esperienza di relax totale, paragonabile a un morbido abbraccio. Le curve generose e continue, unite a una forma organica e completamente rivestita, enfatizzano il senso di protezione e morbidezza. La cura sartoriale delle cuciture, unita alla scelta meticolosa dei materiali, racconta l’eccellenza artigianale di Molteni&C. Con il suo forte impatto visivo, Theo si inserisce con naturalezza sia in ambienti moderni che contemporanei, diventando il cuore accogliente della zona notte.
The brand’s iconic systems for the living area—Living Box by Van Duysen and 505 Up by Nicola Gallizia—are renewed with design enhancements that elevate both functionality and architectural presence.
In 2025, Studio Klass introduces the new Meridian doors for Molteni&C, offering a fresh interpretation of the glass hinged door within the Gliss Master system by Van Duysen. With a patented opening system and sculptural design, Meridian transforms the door into a true furnishing element, breaking from the conventional “frame” in favor of a bold decorative presence.
Molteni&C’s Gliss Master system is enhanced with a new modular island, created to complete and personalize the walk-in closet with both elegance and practicality. Perfectly integrated with the system’s existing modules and finishes, the island offers optimized internal organization—ideal for storing and showcasing every detail of the wardrobe. Available in wood, melamine, or matte lacquer, it reflects the same sartorial precision and aesthetic coherence that define the entire Gliss Master collection.
The 2025 Collection also marks the debut of Palazzo Molteni on Via Manzoni—an international design hub that embodies the brand’s evolution and its enduring legacy in shaping Italian elegance.
