At this year’s Salone del Mobile, Edra once again demonstrated its quiet mastery—presenting not merely furniture, but a new language of form, material, and comfort. With a presentation that spanned both the fairgrounds and the storied Palazzo Durini, the brand invited us into a world where softness becomes structure, and where even the most radical gestures are rendered with grace.
A Tactile Alchemy: Gems, Glossy Matt, and Every Stone
The soul of Edra’s 2025 novelties lies in its materials—an ongoing exploration of surfaces that do more than cover; they speak.
Gems, a dazzling new collection of textiles, captures the iridescence of precious stones—Chalcedony, Malachite, and Jasper rendered in shimmering threads and three-dimensional reliefs. The fabrics don't sit atop the form; they animate it.
Glossy Matt offers an elegant contradiction—at once restrained and rich, marrying the lush tactility of chenille with the coarse integrity of bouclé. Its surface catches the light like a whispered secret.
And Every Stone, Edra’s new outdoor textile, reimagines the natural veining of marble in an irregular, organic weave—bringing durability and sensuality to the exterior realm.
These innovations serve not as adornment, but as collaborators in the architecture of each piece, reinforcing Edra’s belief that material is inseparable from meaning.
Icons Reimagined
Edra’s most beloved designs returned in new expressions, quietly transformed.
The Standard and On the Rocks sofas, designed by Francesco Binfarè, are now available in outdoor versions—monumental forms softened by the touch of Every Stone, extending Edra’s philosophy of absolute comfort to the open air.
Jacopo Foggini’s Milano Chair, a luminous tribute to the city of design, finds its place between sculpture and function, while the Phantom Table floats with a quiet resolve, its presence both delicate and commanding.
These are not new models, but evolutions—testaments to the endurance of good design and the capacity for reinvention.
Palazzo Durini: A Theatre of Light and Time
Within the historic halls of Palazzo Durini, Edra staged a more intimate encounter. Light spilled across alabaster, fabric shimmered like water, and the architecture itself seemed to inhale the quiet luxury of the collection. Here, the objects were not shown—they were experienced. Among them, the Cicladi tables by Foggini stood like luminous islands, echoing the mineral inspirations that defined the season.
Toward a Poetic Sustainability
Even in their opulence, Edra’s novelties embrace a mindful ethos. The new fabrics borrow not only their palette but their philosophy from nature—each weave and texture designed to bring us closer to the earth, not further from it. This is sustainability not as statement, but as quiet conviction.
As ever, Edra remains less a brand than a conversation—between designer and artisan, between tradition and transformation, between object and observer. And in Milan this year, that dialogue deepened, reminding us that true design is not invented, but revealed.
