The airy and modern Dylan modular seating system by Rodolfo Dordoni for Minotti is contemporary with couturier details

In a world of fast-paced change, Minotti’s pursuit of timeless design as well as its honed technical expertise result in elegant pieces that stand ready to elevate any interior with sophistication and style. The 2023 Collection proves this, finding a balance between classicism and contemporaneity, organic lines and solid volumes.

Coordinated by Rodolfo Dordoni with Minotti Studio, the new collection expresses a single language of stylistic coherence derived from international voices such as Marcio Kogan / studio mk27, Nendo, GamFratesi, Inoda+Sveje and Gordon Guillaumier. While embracing consistency with Minotti’s design vision, the 2023 Collection explores new horizons with the aim of responding to the ever-changing nature of contemporary living.

The undisputed star of the 2023 Collection is Dylan, the new seating system by Rodolfo Dordoni, expressed in three different variants and featuring an unexpectedly modern and airy base as well as couture-inspired stitching on the cushions that give it a timeless classic look with a contemporary modularity.

Torii Bold

The new Raphael family of seats by GamFratesi presents single furniture pieces with generous proportions that express the same comfort of a traditional modular system, opening the door to a new way of interpreting the living area. The new Torii Bold family of seats by Nendo, meanwhile, features large, rounded upholstered volumes, enhanced by Japanese-inspired details – the design preserves the morphology of the iconic Torii family’s backrest while presenting a more solid and compact aesthetic. Fine structural details also characterise Superblocks, the new family of storage units by Marcio Kogan / studio mk27, conceived as if they were real architecture and inspired by the rationalism of forms – the stylistic code of the Brazilian architect.

Torii Nest Outdoor

In a synergic dialogue, the 2023 Outdoor Collection complements Minotti’s indoor designs. The Torii Nest Outdoor family of seats has been enriched with new elements characterised by the iconic woven cord backrests, curvy silhouettes, solid teak frames and slender aluminium feet. This encourages the natural continuity of the Minotti vision between indoor and outdoor worlds, also expressed in the light appeal of the new Sendai Cord Outdoor swivel armchair, which reflects the upholstered volume of the indoor armchair, reduced and stylised.
