Bring Together Creations by International Design talents with the Reissues of Great Masters from the Past

Tacchini’s first showroom is located in a Milanese house from the 20th century in Brera at Largo Treves, 5. The showroom, which is almost 300 square meters in size, is situated in an area renowned for its understated elegance and sense of history. The two-story room has been meticulously preserved, keeping its distinctive features like high ceilings, worn parquet floors, and large windows with wooden frames. Like a friend’s house, the showroom is a small, welcoming area that encourages leisurely exploration. With delicate hues and pastel tones, Charlotte de La Grandière’s styling and scenography for the showroom create a comforting atmosphere that makes even the smallest details stand out.

The project embraces the intimate soul of this space. The rooms flow into one another seamlessly, connected by a deliberately soft and harmonious color palette: sky blue, aqua green, pale pink, light yellow, and creamy white – with a matte finish and bright white lacquered moldings. The furniture arrangement defines the various functions, from the entrance to the living room, while the styling conveys the feeling of a lived-in home. A life story.” – Charlotte de La Grandière, Creative Director –

Despite the bustle of the fair, Tacchini’s Salone del Mobile 2025 exhibit offers a calm, harmonious area intended to give guests a sense of suspension while presenting a distinctive take on modern living. The stand, designed by Matteo Fiorini (Studio LYS) with styling by Charlotte de La Grandière, has a number of subtracted-shaped volumes. It has tactile textures, a neutral color scheme, grazing light, and slits and openings. The interior is filled with cozy areas that evoke the intimacy of the home, combining softness and rigor to create a welcoming haven.

Tacchini reiterates its mission to combine the works of great masters from the past with designs by international designers to create Tacchini 2025 New Collection.

Toogood x Tacchini
Bread and Butter Collection
The idea that bread and butter are the foundations of domestic happiness and health served as the inspiration for Toogood’s most recent partnership with Tacchini. With tables found in tiny monuments made from thickly sliced sourdough and maquettes for a modular sofa made from ever-softening butter, the studio focuses on materials and modelmaking. The Bread console, Bread side table, and upholstered Butter sofa in the Bread and Butter collection are all carved from stained ash wood with maple inlays.

“Every single morning, I knead, proof and bake a loaf of bread. Some people have transcendental meditation or prayer. I have my sourdough starter and half an hour of sticky, squashy, floury, sensory, in-the-present pleasure. There are some days when the world caves in…but I find peace and pride in my relentlessly rising loaf. On the daily bread I can depend.” Faye Toogood

Butter Sofa
The Toogood studio created the whimsical and unusual Butter Sofa, a modular sculpture inspired by Cornish butter. It has ample upholstery and large building block structures that can be rearranged to accommodate different tastes.

“I wanted to create a chair as comforting, and as tactile as soft butter. Modelling with slippery fingers, the modular Butter Sofa appeared. Every-day life is a thing of beauty. Sometimes you need go no further than the breakfast table to find meaning. Slice a loaf of bread. Look at it from a new perspective.” – Faye Toogood –

Bread Console
The Bread Console is a sophisticated wooden object with soft, realistic forms carved from ash that was created by baking, slicing, and balancing two ciabattas. While the Maple inlay is naturally stained in a pale primrose tone that resembles a slice of buttered bread, the console’s warmth and tactile quality are complemented by a stain that celebrates the wood’s natural grain.

Bread Side Tables
Sourdough bread was baked, sliced, and stacked to create Bread Side Tables. From this rustic start came two sculptural side tables. The ash used to carve the soft, realistic shapes has a warm, tactile quality that is enhanced by a stain that highlights the grain of the wood. Like a piece of buttered bread, the maple inlay is naturally stained in a light primrose hue.

Butter Tray
With its soft shapes and whimsical inspiration, the Butter Serving Tray is a multipurpose piece from the Bread and Butter collection. On the Bread Console,  Bread Side Tables, or Butter Sofa, it can be used to store spare change, lemons, toast, or automobile keys.

Klotski Chair by Michael Anastassiades
Michael Anastassiades created the simple Klotski chair for Tacchini. Like sliding-block puzzles, the design is based on a fictitious arrangement of wooden blocks. It looks as though a portion of the back has been raised from below and is balanced on its edges. The upholstered seat is padded for comfort, and the armless version is slightly smaller and stackable. The chair’s longevity, which Anastassiades considers to be the greatest accomplishment of an object, is ensured by the play of geometries, angles, and lines supporting its seemingly straightforward construction.

“The starting point was creating a chair that looks and feels utilitarian but introduces a level of sophistication to an everyday product, elevating it and giving the chair a completely different experience.”  ­– Michael Anastassiades ­

Tact & Trace Mirrors and Refract Vases by Objects of Common Interest
Objects of Common Interest and Tacchini made a series of resin objects called the Tact & Trace Mirrors and Refract Vases. Blurred colors and constantly changing reflections are produced by the kaleidoscope-like design, which evokes memories that wane with time. The prismatic shapes give the mirrors and vases a classic, delicate note, while the resin produces dynamic shades and shadows. Eleni Petaloti, the studio’s co-founder, reinterpreted the essence of crystal into modern mirrors that reflect light, shape, and emotions, which is what inspired the Tact & Trace Mirrors. Using the resin from the mirror manufacturing process, the Refract Vases are created with sustainability in mind. Both the beauty and the fragility of memories are reflected in the creations.

Le Mura XL Sofa by Mario Bellini
Mario Bellini’s Le Mura collection has been reissued by Tacchini, which has improved its inherent comfort by adding an XL size. A more cozy and intimate space is created by the deeper seat and the adjustable soft cushions. With extra modules like chaise longue and corner units that enable larger configurations, the XL version further demonstrates the original design’s adaptability. The Le Mura, which was reissued in 2022, embodies the radical design philosophy of the 1970s and addresses ergonomics, aesthetics, proportions, and moral, ethical, and social issues. Without losing its boundless energy, the project combines modules of various sizes and shapes in almost infinite configurations. Le Mura emphasizes modularity, alluding to the massive stones that were used for Roman walls and that, in theory, could be joined indefinitely to fit into different spaces.

Tako Low Table by Cini Boeri
Architect Cini Boeri created the Tako low table in the 1970s. It is a multipurpose and adaptable piece of furniture that makes it simple to rearrange the house to suit changing needs. It comes in two sizes and has four tubular chrome steel legs that support a large surface. It complements minor household rituals and is a logical extension of the home floor. Cini Boeri’s idea of the home as a place that can be readily rearranged to suit the needs of the occupant is highlighted by the table’s low height, which encourages social interaction and conversation. With a white lacquered wood top on four chrome steel cylinders and a new finish that includes a Ceppo di Crema marble top and the original chrome steel legs, Tako is being reissued by Tacchini today.

Africa Chair by Afra and Tobia Scarpa
Africa is a chair that is a sculpture that blends form, structure, and utility. It is a timeless project that honors the craftsmanship of traditional cabinetmakers and the resurgence of wood in design. It was created in 1975 by Afra and Tobia Scarpa. The chair’s solid canaletto walnut frame highlights the expressiveness of the veneer’s thicknesses. Leather or fabric upholstery covers the curved seat. The backrest’s exquisite chromatic effects and delicate black inlay are the result of manual roughing and smoothing processes. It is constructed as a single piece and divided into two mirrored parts. The wide space created by joining the backrest and rear legs at the base gives it flexibility and a totemic appearance.

Torso Side Table by Roberto Sironi
Tacchini and Roberto Sironi collaborated on Torso, a limited edition of 100 sculptures that emphasize material and research to produce timeless and useful decorative sculptures. The side table, which was inspired by the artwork of Constantin Brâncuși, is composed of polished aluminum casting and has a reflective surface that gives the appearance of an endless, suspended sculpture.
