Lema's 2023 collection expresses an idea of conviviality, dedicated to the encounter between relaxed and welcoming spaces. The attention to production and disposal processes, the choice of materials and the constant experimentation on the choice of colours, finishes and above all their combinations, gives life to eco-sustainable furnishings that are design-led—unique and contemporary interpretations of a lifestyle, the Mediterranean one, the essence of Made in Italy, which open to the world.
The new collection finds its perfect stage at the Salone del Mobile.Milano, where the stand is an open and welcoming place, and the aesthetic impact is not only given by its vastness (over 1300 sqm) but also by its carefully designed layout detail. Designed by Studio Lissoni&Partners in collaboration with Vandersandestudio and Ufficio Stile Lema, the installation interprets the style launched last year, where the relationship between nature and domestic spaces is placed centre stage. The codes of nature—real plants, stylised flowers, and metaphorical presences—burst into the intimate spaces of the house, establishing a controlled balance between the products and the poetics from the encounter. Life according to Lema is highlighted thanks to the calibrated insertion of installations such as the overlapping of patterns, the deliberate repetition of categories of objects and the use of out-of-scale elements. The collection shown in these spaces recounts the company's ability to push itself into the exploration of new creative horizons between shapes, imagination and cultural re-enactments of international scope, creating a dialogue between new furnishings and iconic pieces from recent editions. The company philosophy is seen from collection to collection—an idea of complete well-being, which combines its process of aesthetic and technological research with an ethical and sustainable project.
Lema also takes part in the Fuorisalone in its Milan flagship store, which, like every year, exhibits the company's new collection and iconic furnishings at the heart of the city. A showroom space on two levels, inside an elegant early 20th-century building with large windows on the street a stone's throw from the Duomo, characterised by a refined and intimate setting.
Lema's new designs at the Salone del Mobile 2023:
VentiTre cabin designed by David Lopez Quincoces and OfficinadesignLema
Modular, elegant, and sustainable, Lema once again revolutionises the concept of the walk-in wardrobe and reinterprets it in a contemporary key, giving life to VentiTre: a modular, highly customised system capable of combining aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability. Lema presents a new eco-friendly walk-in wardrobe at the Milan Design Week 2023. A design, full of elements and accessories that can be customised in every detail, designed by David Lopez Quincoces and OfficinadesignLema, ambassadors of a philosophy devoted to the 'culture of beauty' that continues to guide the company throughout each collection. An idea of complete well-being that combines its process of aesthetic and technological research with an ethical and sustainable project. Giving value to improve people's quality of life. One product, three proposals, six new material finishes, 35 colours and countless combinations to choose from, from the most essential to the most complete—Lema's 'made-to-measure' finds one of its maximum expressions in VentiTre. A sartorial project that realises the client’s wishes with an attentive look towards its impact on the environment.
In the version with no panels, VentiTre is presented as a versatile system that outlines the space with lightness. Suspended aluminium architecture enhances the design in its aesthetic and formal purity. A dynamic proposal that makes the essential its strong point, able to satisfy the needs and tastes of a young and refined customer base.
The walk-in wardrobe is completed with another version that makes the panel the protagonist, elevating it as a blank canvas on which to give life to your project. The essence of uniqueness—a custom-made walk-in wardrobe for your own personality.VentiTre responds to the most ambitious design requests, launching a new challenge in terms of customisation, thanks to an even wider range of finishes, with which to compose a symphony of colours and materials that characterise the space, creating an intimate and authentic atmosphere.
Systems meet, and design possibilities increase. VentiTre, in all its versions, is designed to dialogue with other Lema systems, first of all with the wide range of Armadio al Centimetro with which it shares the same modularity. It also integrates perfectly with the LT40 system and allows the insertion of some elements such as the vanity unit or the writing desk, according to functional and aesthetic needs.
The compositions of VentiTre are completed with classic equipment such as chests of drawers, and shelves, and are enriched with new elements such as closed compartments, to keep and store precious objects, such as shoes and bags. VentiTre also features an integrated cable-free LED lamp system that allows for optimal lighting and at the same time ensures speed and ease of assembly. Developed with extreme care with a view to the circular economy, the walk-in wardrobe is designed to be easily disassembled at the end of its life cycle, to allow for the correct disposal of each of its components.
The road towards sustainability is clear with VentiTre, above all owing to the careful choice of the materials that compose it. The partner of this new project is the Saviola Group, a company founded in 1963, the first to create a completely ecological panel with 100% carefully selected recycled wood. Lema consolidates its collaboration with the Lombard company, with which it shares values of respect and ethical responsibility, the excellence of Made in Italy, and being a sector leader at both a national and international level—materials inspired by nature with a very high level of attention to detail, both from a tactile and a visual point of view. Glass and aluminium, recyclable materials, complete the design, making VentiTre a concrete expression of research and experimentation, through which it is possible to create a design product that is sustainable.
SOFFIO designed by Norm Architects:
Functionality and sustainability come together in a Soffio—a living room created according to an eco-sustainable perspective, the result of a long design process that has given life to a unique design. Soffio is a group of seats made with recycled and recyclable materials putting design at its forefront. A passe-partout piece of furniture whose structure in FSC® plywood supports the soft cushions filled with a fibre made from recycled materials. In the vast range of textile collections in the catalogue, there are two new proposals for low environmental impact upholstery, which perfectly matches the conceptual and aesthetic characteristics of Soffio. The first, Ofelia, is a fabric made from GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified recycled cotton. Ariel is very soft to the touch and a particularly resistant fabric; it is a chenille made with recycled PET yarn. The armchair and sofa are furnishings designed to be easily disassembled and properly disposed of at the end of their life cycle, in an eco-friendly perspective. Soffio represents the result of long experimentation on materials and manufacturing techniques. Eco-sustainable par excellence, it is a classic-looking piece of furniture that represents a concrete response to the needs of contemporary living that increasingly looks at the home from the perspective of sustainability. The variety of available elements for the Soffio sofa and armchair allows you to create open compositions, with a fresh and informal character that invites you to relax and experience moments of relaxation and conviviality.
AYRA designed by Gabriele and Oscar Buratti: enveloping comfort
Essential at first glance, the refinement of the Ayra chair and armchair is enhanced in the sartorial details and in the sinuous curve of the seat, which makes the seat delicate and harmonious. Upholstered in fabric or leather, Ayra is available with metal legs or in the new version in oak-stained ash. A seating with an enveloping design and strongly contemporary in proportions, ideal around a generously sized dining table. Its distinctive feature lies in the lines of the backrest that is lower with respect to the seat, creating an unexpected movement.
NIVEAUX designed by Federica Biasi: versatility and comfort for the living room
The Niveaux collection is expanding—a sofa with multiple faces that creates ever-changing compositions, able to express its young and fresh personality and to enter at ease in the living area. To enrich the range of sofa configurations, new modules ensure maximum comfort and the possibility of topstitching on some elements, giving character to the living area.
LINA designed by Squire&Partners: informal hospitality with a linear design
A console capable of adapting to contemporary needs, a multifunctional piece of furniture with a minimalist look, Lina is the console that was created to inhabit the entrance of a home, introducing those who live there to an atmosphere of warmth and familiarity. Designed by Squire&Partners, the console has an airy structure and a thin top, which can be customised thanks to the wide range of finishes in the catalogue. Available with and without drawers, the Lina console can be enriched with an equipped wall or a large wall mirror. Essential and graphic, Lina constitutes a strong contemporary and versatile system that reinvents the traditional concept of a console.
LENA designed by Piero Lissoni: creative proposal combining colours and materials
A wardrobe that celebrates the meeting of different materials, making material and chromatic diversity its strong point. Lena is the latest proposal designed by Piero Lissoni—a wardrobe with highly decorative doors that reveals its bold character in the combination of different finishes. The handle disappears into the design, becoming the element that defines the boundaries of the various materials. Lena is completed with an extensive catalogue of equipment designed to meet specific functional needs such as drawer units, trouser racks, belt holders, shoe racks, shelves and bars, coat hangers, and an integrated LED light system.
DRUM designed by Piero Lissoni: a playful game between form and function
The family of tables and pouffes, designed by Piero Lissoni stands out for the structure in ribbed wood, bullnose-worked in solid Canaletto walnut, which gives an unexpected dynamism to the living area. The coffee table is available both in round and oval versions, as well as in a square shape with rounded corners. The top of the coffee table can be customised with back-painted glass, stone, or marble top, in all variants in the collection. The Drum pouffe is born from the homonymous collection of tables, from which it inherits the characteristic wooden structure, to which a soft padded cushion is added and covered in fabric or leather. The Drum collection is a piece of furniture that makes bold use of geometric shapes and is an example of high cabinet making.
EUREKA BAR designed by Steve Leung: elegant and contemporary
A multifaceted system designed to adapt to a contemporary lifestyle. Eureka expands its compositional horizons with the Eureka bar, a multifunctional storage unit that can integrate perfectly into the Armadio al Centimetro system. The panelling covered in leather or suede, a distinctive feature of Eureka, hides a mix of elements that can frame elegant glassware and precious bottles of liqueurs. Customisable in every detail and equipped for every need, Eureka is completed with a retractable trolley, designed to accommodate the best refrigeration technologies. A sophisticated treasure trove dedicated to moments of relaxation, the Eureka system shows its innate versatility in this new composition—a bar cabinet with a strong character that reveals its personality in every detail.
LULLABY sleeping group designed by Palomba+Serafini: harmonious solution for the night area
The Lullaby collection is a family of containers for the bedroom with gentle and harmonious shapes. The chest of drawers and bedside tables with a soft and dynamic design fit into a sophisticated atmosphere that makes relaxation functionality the starsand. The Lullaby night group, available in a wide range of materials and finishes in the catalog, stands out for its full volumes softened by rounded corners, to give lightness to the night area without sacrificing functionality.
LULLABY bed – design byPalomba+Serafini: suspended volumes and lightness for the night area
Ideas from the past give life to a collection that stands out for its aesthetic research and attention to detail. Designed by Studio Ludovica+RobertoPalomba, the Lullaby bed, also available with a storage compartment, represents the culmination of in-depth experience in textile processing, especially in blanket stitching. The clean and essential lines and the high and imposing headboard give the figure a strong geometric imprint and a soft and enveloping effect, enhanced by the padding. The real innovation of this design concerns the design of the bed frame, whose geometry draws a light and deliberately airy shape, with a discreet visual impact. The decorative stitching, in continuity with the headboard, completes the harmony of the bed.
Lema’s 2023 collection continues to trace the company's route aimed at creating an increasingly complete offer to meet the needs of a constantly evolving market. Furnishings that recount the vision of contemporary life according to Lema, the result of great care taken in every phase of creation, from the design to the final product, the choice of materials, their eco-sustainability, and the close collaboration with designers, who for over 50 years have marked its history.
