Pietra Collection As organic as a rock, our new Pietra collection is inspired by nature and aims to generate a unique and unrepeatable design piece in the space where it is located. Pietra is a collection that adapts to our “Henzo” opening system. It is a thin slab of lightened artificial stone, which is placed on a wooden front. This allows us to adapt this material and make it usable for bathroom and kitchen fronts, providing a unique sensation of exclusivity and durability.

TIMELESS CLOSET + TIMELESS ISLAND The Timeless Collection rescues the use of solid wood and highend manufacturing combined with high-tech cabinetry production. The structures in ventilated solid wood create an effect of light and shade, forming architectural patterns and cubes of light that ennoble housing spaces. Glass has a strong presence in the Timeless Collection in drawers and islands. They include lighted boxes, creating sensory effects that strengthen well-being feeling. Leather and solid wood heighten the environment, while organic shapes bring comfort, creating a legacy for the next generations who will use the product. A new palette of finishes was developed with colors, leather, woods, blades, glass, straws, films, and fabrics combined to provide the freedom of customization and create unique designs for each customer.
