New Baxter collection at Milan Design Week
Milan Design Week stands as an unparalleled showcase for luxury furniture brands. Here, the crafting of each detail and the unveiling of new collections transcend mere style to serve as a manifesto of design innovation and excellence. Within this milieu of superior design and aesthetic pursuit, Baxter has once again taken center stage, unveiling its 2024 Indoor collection. Skillfully blending the nostalgic ambiance of the seventies with decidedly modern touches, the collection establishes a harmonious dialogue between past and future.
Among the standout products presented by the Brianza-based brand at the 2024 Salone del Mobile in Milan is undoubtedly the Aura sofa. Designed by Hannes Peer, this refined and understated piece offers extensive customization options, from the number of seats to their configurations. The creativity and vibrant style of designer Paola Navone are evident in the Miami Beach sofa, a compact yet dynamically designed furniture piece that evokes the beaches of America's Magic City. The collaboration between the Turin-based designer and Baxter also shines in the Arizona Outdoor sofa, an ideal poolside seat that is equally fitting for interiors or open-air spaces such as patios or loggias. The Elephant outdoor sofa, on the other hand, features an innovative, voluminous design that recalls the majesty of an elephant.
From the collaboration between Roberto Lazzeroni and Baxter come the Olaf armchair, with its youthful and whimsical round and welcoming shapes, and the Stig armchair, a seat with enveloping and soft lines whose armrests evoke the gesture of an embrace. Hannes Peer draws inspiration from the sculptures of Henry Moore in designing the Pillow armchair, resulting in a voluminously aesthetic and cozy chair that offers high comfort reminiscent of the seventies atmospheres. Lastly, Paola Navone designs the Manila outdoor chair for Baxter, a light and airy piece with a strong nomadic vocation, easily adaptable to any outdoor setting.
The Loom table captures attention with its parametric structure and a glass fusion top, reflecting the legacy of post-war Brazilian design and enhancing visual perception through inspirations from American kinetic art. Simultaneously, the Aegates coffee table, inspired by the shape of an archipelago, blends glossy lacquered surfaces with the warmth of natural poplar burl wood. These pieces demonstrate Baxter’s commitment to creating furnishings that not only converse with the spaces but transform them, establishing new paradigms of style and functionality. The Lana console by Christopher Delcourt features a structure made of marble with a water-repellent protective oil, making each piece unique due to the marble’s veins and shades.
Every elegant living room must include two indispensable elements: a sideboard and a bookcase. These pieces not only enrich the environment but also organize and define the space with style and functionality. Baxter has met these needs with two exceptional creations: the Blend sideboard, designed by Federico Peri, is a suspended piece distinguished by its clean and minimalist design, perfect for integrating into any type of environment. The Dune bookcase, meanwhile, combines aesthetics and practicality with its structure in stainless steel sheet, where the polished outer side elegantly contrasts with the satin-finished interior.
