Salone del Mobile.Milano 2018: contemporary furniture

Rich in products, styles and finishes, the Spanish contemporary offer for home and lounge spaces responds to modern lifestyles and trends while adapting to the personality, tastes and needs of consumers. Textures, colours, patterns, charming and functional designs and comfort are all of top priority in Spain’s contemporary décor contributing to keep schemes interesting and fresh.

Inspirations come mainly from current trends, such as the urban glamour, new elegance, industrial chic or the timeless Nordic style, and from the demands of consumers for attractive, comfortable and flexible furniture.

The contemporary house

In contrast to classic décor, contemporary interior design is bold and tends to emphasize popular trends. In contemporary homes, shapes, colours and textures take the spotlight. Natural materials, such as metal and wood, are often paired with geometric, modular furniture and mix-and-match with refined lacquers and attractive fabrics. Bright, contrasting hues as well as pastel and neutral tones are both often found in this interior design style.

Based on a solid tradition, the Valencia-based MONRABAL CHIRIVELLA has developed a reputation for creating charming furniture in different styles for bedrooms, living rooms and dining rooms. Available in natural wood (oak and cherry) or lacquered in warm, neutral tones, the VALENTINA collection, which was initially launched as a line of bedroom furniture, has been extended to include a new line of dining and living room furniture that adapts perfectly to spaces creating harmonious environments.

Lounge in comfort!

The living room is the space where people are supposed to unwind after a long day, so it should be able to achieve feelings of warmth, space, comfort and beauty. Spanish brands have strived to create new seating collections that interpret new aesthetic concepts based on design flexibility and originality.

Sectional sofas, as well as extra-large armchairs, provide great versatility and comfort: you can separate the pieces to create multiple seating areas, or push them together for a comfortable couch, great for watching TV, snuggling and reading. Colourful fabrics, delicate leathers, scattered cushions and exquisite details compliment the look adding a lot of flair to spaces. Innovative relax and entertainment systems bring the lounging experience to the next level.

Models like the new SIROS low profile sofa from GAMAMOBEL allow you to mix and match modules, patterns, stripes and block colours to create different configurations that easily adapt to spaces and its use. Scattered cushions in contrasting hues add vibrancy and a fun touch to the compositions that can be re-arranged in any moment according to the needs of the consumer.

With SUINTA sofa-beds being so charming and beautifully designed it’s hard to believe that they actually conceal a useful guest bed for the night. Part of their success is due to the simple Italian mechanisms that allow you to easily transform the sofas into a quality bed. New models, such as the ITALO or the BALDO sofas, are offered in different dimensions and come upholstered in stain resistant and easy dry-cleaning fabrics.
