“Aria. A medium for connection” through layering, movement and light

From the pale pink and amethyst of the Kriskadecor aluminum chains to the high-gloss metal and white of Reda Amalou‘s furniture, the palette extends to the solid Lipari hue of Dedon‘s outdoor collection by Jean-Marie Massaud, the powder pink and natural wood of Morica‘s furniture, the Portuguese pink marble of the Ghidini 1961 table by Lorenza Bozzoli, the crisp white of Parla‘s pieces, the lime yellow of the Vismara Design foosball table by Bellavista & Piccini, the silky gray of Teporia‘s outdoor collection, the signature white of the Brionvega Radiofonografo by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the celadon green of the Nicoline sofa, and the soft grays and purples of Pulkra‘s concrete furniture by Stormo Studio, Luca Pevere, and Pio & Tito Toso. These delicate yet striking chromatisms play with the reflections of polished metals, from Yet Design Studio‘s chairs and tables to Trizo 21‘s pendant lights and Terzani‘s sculptural lighting compositions.

Gradient effect and subtle variations in opacity

Gradient wallpapers and subtle shifts in opacity shape a dreamlike, immersive atmosphere. The gradient effect appears throughout the space, as seen in the laser-perforated Alcantara curtains, the green-to-yellow transition of Famarella ceramic wall tiles, the soft blue-to-gray gradient of Tecnografica wallpapers, the frosted opacity of Vistosi lamps, and the Brionvega Totem’s exclusive 2025 finish, between violet and sky blue.

Layers and movement

Air is further explored through the interplay of light fabrics moving in space. In the building’s central area, cascading curtains and translucent House of Lyria fabrics enhance the dreamlike setting, while the sculptural, fluid silhouettes of Norr11 furniture evoke movement.

The theme of lightness and movement is echoed in the custom pattern created by Studiopepe for Wall&Decò wallpaper, depicting ethereal female figures floating in space; the upper-level outdoor terrace, covered with a tent gazebo by Sprech; and the curved walls of the ground-floor bar, enveloped in coated foam by Sixinch.

Immersive surfaces and lighting

Lighting and surfaces complete the fully immersive experience. Studiopepe’s sculptural work for the Swedish brand Pholc reinforces the link between form and light; the illuminated Dresswall ceiling guides visitors through a fluid, atmospheric journey, while the Polypiù colored polycarbonate walls enhance depth and dimension.

RRD, at Archiproducts Milano, a showcase of outerwear excellence

At Archiproducts Milano, design meets technology and the glamour of RRD – Roberto Ricci Designs, the Tuscan brand that redefined the language of outerwear. During Milan Design Week, the Archiproducts team will wear ultra-minimalist garments crafted from high-tech fabrics engineered to move like a second skin.

The remarkable story of RRD began in the late 80s between Grosseto and the shores of Maui, where the young windsurfing champion Roberto Ricci, driven by his deep passion for water sports, absorbed the wisdom of surfing gurus and crafted his first boardwear – ultra-minimalist garments crafted from high-tech fabrics. Success was immediate. In 1995, Ricci and creative director Roberto Bardini expanded their vision, launching a clothing brand that applied the same relentless pursuit of innovation from water sports to high-tech apparel. Performance-driven design fused with advanced technology became the hallmark of the RRD brand—an approach encapsulated by the term Perf-Romance, which merges technical excellence with the culture of beauty.

Each piece in the collection is stripped of the superfluous and reinterpreted through a techno-tailored lens: precision cuts, breathable and antibacterial high-tech fabrics, seamless construction, bonded and thermally welded finishes, and glamorous silhouettes in perfect Italian style  – all paired with cutting-edge performance materials.

FIUGGI: The Water of Beauty at Archiproducts Milano

With a centuries-old legacy renowned worldwide as the water of beauty and well-being, Fiuggi now enters the design world. An installation at Archiproducts Milano presents the new bottle design, part of a relaunch strategy following the recent acquisition of the historic Italian brand by LMDV Capital, owned by Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio.

Acqua Fiuggi flows from two natural springs in the Lazio Apennines, with purifying, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging properties recognized for nearly a thousand years. Now, redefining itself as a symbol of refined living and holistic well-being, the brand introduces its new visual identity, debuting at Archiproducts Milano during Milan Design Week. A mini version of the bottle will be available for visitors.

Its vintage-inspired lines pay homage to over eight centuries of history, reflecting the transparency and movement of water—a perfect alignment with the Aria theme: A Medium for Connection.
