Natuzzi Italia celebrated its 65th anniversary during Milan Design Week 2024 with events and projects honouring its journey towards harmony. The flagship store in Via Durini, Milan, transformed into a concept of "quiet luxury," with The Circle of Harmony—65th Anniversary Collection as its centrepiece. 

This collection, featuring designs by Karim Rashid, Andrea Steidl, and Simone Bonanni, narrates Natuzzi's evolution through the past, present, and future. It introduces three new sofas: Memoria by Karim Rashid, Mirai by Andrea Steidl, and Momento by Simone Bonanno. Memoria, with its modular design, reinterprets Mediterranean hospitality, offering versatility and comfort. 

Mirai draws inspiration from Apulian architecture, embodying boldness and warmth through its structure and optical illusion-like lines.

Simone Bonanni's Momento sofa emphasises relaxation and visual comfort, drawing inspiration from Apulian dry stone walls. Its compositional versatility suits various spaces and design preferences. 

The Natuzzi Design Centre also presents Mindful and Snail sofas in the Comfortness collection, redefining relaxation with innovative mechanisms and modular designs.

Natuzzi Italia's 65th Anniversary collection encapsulates the brand's essence of harmony, comfort, design, and the intersection of tradition and innovation. 

Experience harmony and comfort firsthand at our Natuzzi Italia store in Msida, or explore our collection online at natuzzi.com/mt/en/natuzzi-italia.
