architecture-design · 2026-04-29

During Milan Design Week 2026, Poliform took over Palazzo Clerici, an 18th-century Baroque landmark with Tiepolo frescoes, to present its latest collections spanning interiors, outdoor environments, lighting, and kitchen systems. The installation, conceived as a total lifestyle narrative, featured contributions from designers Jean-Marie Massaud, Emmanuel Gallina, and first-time collaborators Yabu Pushelberg. In the courtyard, Studioutte curated Multitude, a site-specific installation of five-meter-high aluminum poles evoking bamboo with lantern-lit pathways and smoke. Key highlights included the Harp kitchen system by Poliform R&D and Studioutte, Yabu Pushelberg's Lanai bed system with a rear-facing sofa, Massaud's Attimo chaise longue, Savoy sofa, and Alfred armchair, the Vortice table, Auguste chair, and Shore outdoor sofa. Poliform also opened a new flagship in Piazza della Scala across three levels, showcasing its full collection. The presentations emphasized craftsmanship, collaboration, and the dialogue between tradition and innovation.
