Moooi at Milan Design Week 2016

Moooi The Unexpected Welcome exhibition in Tortona district was an exciting one as expected of Moooi after the past 3 shows there over the past years. This time Moooi created a space divided into rooms with the use of black curtains so that the visitors could explore each area without distractions of the next!

The central space of the exhibition was taken up by the new additions to the collection (available in early 2017) – the Charleston Chairs by Marcel Wanders. This quirky piece is an upended Chesterfield sofa which would look great on its own as a feature chair in a hotel lobby or as a set because in group when they’re turning around it looks like a dance.

The Compression Sofa has a single seat in the indented form. This version was a one-off – a solid marble block with a soft Kvadrat Divina fabric seat which is an exact inversion of the chair soon available which will have the large block made out of foam covered in Divina fabric and a single marble block seat. The version in the photo has already been sold by the time we saw it to a client in Finland!
