At Milan Design Week (7-13 April) Flaminia presents its design universe with a series of exhibitions held in different locations around the city. The showroom at 18 Via Solferino is the starting point of an inspirational journey through the world of bathroom furnishings and the new Flaminia Vases<\/em>, a line of decorative vases born of the interdisciplinary research initiated by Flaminia Cultura<\/strong>. The itinerary continues with the Next Place Hotel<\/strong> installation at 35 Via Savona, goes on to the Superstudio<\/strong> space at 27 Via Tortona, with Unforgettable, an exhibition celebrating 25 years of the venue, and concludes at Rooftop S32<\/strong> in Via Sassetti with the Tactile Evolution<\/em> installation by Elena Salmistraro. The Civita Castellana-based company thus confirms its role as a key player on the international design scene, through a multifaceted story that bears witness to its unwavering attention to the evolution of furniture and its design variations.<\/p>\n

FLAMINIA SHOWROOM
In the historic venue in the heart of the Brera Design District, Flaminia\u2019s 2025 creations take pride of place alongside the brand’s iconic projects. Among Flaminia\u2019s new proposals is the Falala washbasin, designed by Elena Salmistraro<\/strong><\/a>, which highlights the three-dimensional processing of ceramics. With this work, the designer explores the strength and pliability properties of one of her favourite materials, while paying homage to Sub-Saharan culture. In the Ghanaian language, in fact, Falala<\/strong><\/a> means \u201cborn in abundance\u201d. Her design is inspired by the shape of African baskets and evokes the atmosphere of this continent with a colour scheme featuring warm earthy tones.<\/p>\n

Play, the successful collection designed by the brand\u2019s in-house creative team, which includes wall-mounted and floor-standing sanitaryware, countertop washbasins and a freestanding bathtub, is now enriched by a compact monobloc element, once again defined by clean lines, rounded corners and pure, neutral shapes.<\/p>\n

Making his de\u0301but with the brand is Advay Gupta,<\/strong> a very young designer of Indian origin, who has already won an international competition and has designed Siena,<\/strong> a washbasin whose rounded shapes call to mind the gentle contours of the Tuscan hills. The addition of this new talent to Flaminia\u2019s creative team confirms the scouting skills of art director Giulio Cappellini who, since 2004, has brought together renowned and young designers to write the latest chapter in the history of Flaminia. A chapter that owes much to the use of colour, now a distinctive feature of the brand. This year, new glossy colours \u2013 Avana, Azzurro Polvere, Verde Giada and Terracotta \u2013 are used on many products, enhancing their appeal. The matt shades of the rich palette \u2013 Argilla, Cenere, Carbone and Fango \u2013 recall the natural elements while the special Crystal and Metal finishes round off the brand’s wide colour choice.<\/p>\n

The showroom also hosts the first Flaminia Vases collection, the brand\u2019s efforts to experiment beyond sanitary products and venture into the decorative field continue. A process that began with the lamps and stools of the Flaminia Home line. A group of designers from different parts of the world have interpreted a simple geometric shape, made of ceramic in a soft shade of matt Latte. On this blank slate the designers have impressed their own style. Japanese designer Nendo<\/strong><\/a> decorated it with small drawings reminiscent of a comic strip and renamed it Sketch<\/em>. Indian designer Satyendra Pakhale<\/strong> created Amri<\/em>, a small painting with simple brushstrokes of colour, while for the decoration of Tessora<\/em> his fellow countryman Advay Gupta<\/strong> drew inspiration from the patterns of oriental tradition. From Italy comes Barcode<\/em>, created by the Dimore Studio<\/strong> duo with a very stylish graphic decoration that plays on the concept of barcodes; Leonardo Talarico<\/strong><\/a> left the mark of his minimalist style on Instinct;<\/em> and finally Giulio Cappellini<\/strong> created the vibrant Mansour<\/em> vase, creating a lavish use of colour.<\/p>\n

The Flaminia Vases collection is part of a far-reaching project, Flaminia Cultura, launched for the brand’s 70th anniversary, which views the design project in broader terms, investigating new contemporary creative expressions and going beyond the narrow logic of production.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
