In Studia 54, furniture selection begins with the overall composition of the interior. We evaluate the role of an object in a room, its fit, texture in different lighting conditions, and the relationship of color to the overall palette of the house. The name of the furniture brand is taken into account along with the design, materials, service life and purpose of a particular room.
We have previously published a selection of the best designer furniture brands. In the new version, we return to the topic with the experience of recent Studia 54 projects: which brands help assemble the interior of an apartment today, where each furniture house is appropriate and what tasks it meets.
Over the past ten years, we have worked with various furniture brands and implemented dozens of projects with them. This article has compiled a new top 10 of them, which are often used in apartments and private homes and help solve various interior problems.
1. Minotti
Minotti is chosen for its geometric purity, calm rigor and precise fit. The brand's furniture is especially appropriate in offices, living rooms and private areas, where the interior needs composure and concise expressiveness.
Minotti reveals itself through shape, material and proportion. Leather and textiles are selected so that the light accentuates the texture, and the silhouette remains the main visual element. Such furniture makes the space more precise and collected.
In one of the Studia 54 projects, Minotti chairs became part of an office with a view of the site. They added sculpturality and status to the room, preserving a calm background for work and personal meetings.
2. Poltrona Frau
Poltrona Frau is a brand that works particularly subtly with textiles, color and tactility. His objects help shape the interior palette and add a soft, almost resort-like atmosphere to the space.
Poltrona Frau materials are appreciated for their depth of shades, stability and pleasant texture. Textiles can become the color anchor of a room, support the overall gamut, or add a bolder nuance to the interior.
In high-level projects, such details are of great importance. They soften large furniture, add layers and help make the interior more personal.
3. Poliform
Poliform should be chosen for apartments where the integrity of space is important. The brand is particularly strong in system solutions for different areas of the apartment, where furniture becomes part of the interior structure.
Poliform solutions help to assemble an apartment into a calm and balanced composition. Built-in systems, panels, kitchen modules, and walk-in closets maintain clean lines, order, and a sense of expensive space.
In Studia 54 projects, Poliform often appears where it is important to connect different areas of an apartment in one language: from the kitchen and living room to the master unit and dressing room. Such furniture sets the interior structure and makes everyday life more convenient.
4. Rugiano
Rugiano is the choice for interiors where softness, comfort and a sense of restoration come to the fore. The brand's sofa groups look relaxed and retain their assembled shape with a high level of detail.
Rugiano is attentive to the fit: depth, height, cushion softness and body position. Therefore, the brand's furniture is particularly well displayed in bedrooms, living rooms and personal recreation areas where people spend a lot of time.
Rugiano materials give the body a feeling of warmth and tranquility. Fabrics are chosen for their softness and depth, leather for its pleasant tactility, and shape for its ability to maintain long rest and visual lightness.
5. Cattelan Italia
Cattelan Italia opens up well in dining and dining areas. The brand is able to create objects with pronounced sculpturality that become the center of the room and assemble a dinner scenario around themselves.
Cattelan Italia tables combine striking form and everyday functionality. They often involve complex work with materials, textures, and bases. Each element supports the overall composition, so the object looks solid and convincing.
6. NatureDesign
NatureDesign is suitable for interiors that need scale, calm power and expressive presence. This brand is often chosen for large living rooms, where furniture becomes the center of family life and sets the character of the space.
In the Cyprus project, the dining room was built around a table from this brand. He became the main subject of the space, set the rhythm of planting and supported the feeling of a formal family dinner.
7. FiftyFourms
FiftyFourms is a furniture brand that grew out of the practice of Studia 54. The objects are created within real interior tasks: to match the scale of the living room, the rhythm of the bedroom, the proportions of the office, the requirements for ergonomics and the daily scenario of the owners.
The furniture of this brand is perceived alive, because it is born from the experience of a team that designs houses and apartments for private customers every day.
In FiftyFourms, the author's design, precise proportions, natural materials and tactility are important. Furniture should retain its expressiveness after a few years, beautifully reveal its texture and remain relevant in the interior after changing the seasonal decor.
8. Bonaldo
Bonaldo is suitable for interiors where plastic, contrast of materials and expressive design are important. The brand creates furniture that is perceived as part of the room and helps to structure the space.
Bonaldo's objects often have a dialogue of textures. Contrasting materials and complex silhouettes combine to form a calm, noticeable composition. Such furniture is suitable for apartments where you need an object with character and a clear design position.
Bonaldo objects can set a rhythm to a space, form an accent zone, or support a more graphic bedroom, living room, or study scenario.
9. Eichholtz
Eichholtz is chosen for accent furniture, lighting and decorative objects that add a hotel-like composure and expressive final layer to the interior. The brand is well suited for areas where an object with character is needed: a dressing room, a hall, a living room, a bedroom or an office.
Eichholtz furniture helps to complete the interior composition. She supports the room's scenario through texture, silhouette, reflections, and decorative details. In high-level projects, such objects often become a connecting element between large furniture, light, art and decorative materials.
10. Zanotta
Zanotta adds liveliness, freedom and a more relaxed intonation to the interior. It is a brand for details that make the space closer to the person and help to soften the parade.
Zanotta furniture often appears in recreation areas, children's, gaming, private living rooms and chamber lounges. These objects create the feeling of a home where you can relax, change your position, sit lower, and spend time in a more relaxed rhythm.
In Studia 54 projects, such solutions help to balance a strict interior framework. The space gets more warmth, movement and naturalness.
How to choose furniture
In Studia 54, the selection of furniture begins after the approval of the interior concept. At this stage, the team already understands the image of the apartment, its palette, materials, light, routes and scenarios of life. Furniture is selected as part of this system: according to scale, fit, texture, color, and the role of each object in the space.
At the stage of the technical assignment, we record the personal preferences of the customer. Sometimes true connoisseurs of Italian furniture houses come to us, for whom specific brands become an important part of the future interior. We take these wishes into account and check in advance how the selected items will be combined with the concept, materials and scale of the apartment.
Most often, the interior is assembled from several brands. Each furniture house solves its own task: it sets the scale, adds tactility, forms a light accent or supports storage. It is important that all solutions exist in the same system and match in proportions, materials, color, fit, and mood. This is how the interior develops into a complete composition, where the level, taste and comfort support each other.
The selection of furniture for the interior is a well-thought-out system that reveals the design concept of the apartment, supports daily habits and remains relevant for many years.
