Minotti, the excellence of Italian furniture design, launched its 2016 collection at the recent Salone del Mobile 2016. Time to select 10 Minotti furniture picks for your living spaces.
Minotti drew inspiration for the 2016 collection from the concept of space as a theatrical backdrop to our emotions and lives. Across a myriad of contexts and environs, people are central to any space and “live” that space. More and more, we prefer a sincere, natural and organic environment, as opposed to a feigned setting.
Italian architect and designer Rodolfo Dordoni, Minotti’s artistic director since 1997, coordinated the new indoor collection. With a view to ensuring we enjoy every part of a space, the collection is entirely versatile, its components consisting of seating, coffee tables and storage elements. In typical Minotti style, the presentation is a blend of moody and sombre hues, with a confident and composed aspect.

Creed
The Creed family is made up of various chairs and sofas, each designed for particular settings and occasions, from residential to corporate, lounging to waiting.
The Creed “Large” armchair is a generous and gorgeous cocoon-like seat. A sturdy piece, its legs are made using solid Sucupira wood.
