Gianfranco Ferré Home with its 2024 collection plays on contrasts by combining industrial style and cosy mood. The new line from the ONIRO Group brand succeeds in bringing seemingly opposing concepts back into harmony: the result is a collection characterised by the brand’s typical metropolitan aesthetics, where metal elements with industrial lines are found, which when combined with organic shapes and soft fabrics confer depth and a sense of hospitality.
All this is rendered both sophisticated and versatile by a neutral, almost impalpable colour palette, declined on delicate shades of grey, white and wood and enlivened by green, in an acid but deep tone, with a saturation that is not too intense. Gianfranco Ferré Home’s 2024 collection includes sculptural seats with retro charm, such as the Haaga sofa and Brygge armchair, which stand out for their contemporary design and fluid lines that recall the fingers of a hand, ready to welcome and cradle. Also responding to this vintage and industrial style are the Kamppi armchairs and the Islington chaise longue, which fit harmoniously into spaces, conferring an aura of modernity and comfort.
The softness and prominence of the seating creates a striking contrast with the simplicity of the Japandi-style furniture, made of Canaletto walnut and characterised by minimalist lines. Simple and cosy, the Kaunas sofa fits into the collection as a versatile solution thanks to the possibility of composition through its linear and modular modules, raised from the floor by solid walnut wood feet. The creative use of glass introduces the theme of presence and absence into the collection, further enhancing the balance between rigour and softness that characterises the entire proposal. Exemplary in this sense are the Havnen side tables, characterised by an opaque glass top and cylindrical base with leather upholstery, and the Veil side tables, composed of vertical glass plates joined together by the presence of buttons.
