SALONE DEL MOBILE 2025 || MIDJ’s Sculptural Furniture Brings Architectural Beauty Home
At the latest Salone del Mobile, Italian brand MIDJ introduced a captivating collection of furniture that explores the poetry of architectural simplicity and sculptural refinement.
Three of the brand’s sophisticated collections—Yak, Plissé, and Leo—caught our eye because they illustrate the brand’s nuanced understanding of space, comfort, and design elegance.
Designed by Nicola Bonriposi, the Yak sofa captures adaptability and ease, inspired by the resilient spirit of its namesake animal. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, the modular Yak seamlessly merges aesthetic appeal with sustainable ingenuity. Its clever, screw-free interlocking system ensures modular versatility, while the use of recyclable expanded polypropylene (EPP) and eco-friendly upholstery aligns with contemporary sustainability trends. Visually soft yet structurally robust, Yak offers an inviting embrace that effortlessly adapts to the fluidity of modern living.

In contrast, the expanded Plissé collection by esteemed designer Paola Navone elegantly references sartorial craftsmanship. The distinctive pleated effect of its tables—a signature hallmark—evokes a graceful movement akin to flowing fabric, bringing softness and drama to interior spaces. With tabletops draping subtly around sculptural metal bases, the new elliptical dining table and versatile coffee tables offer infinite possibilities for bespoke configurations. Navone’s collection exudes an understated grandeur, making Plissé ideal for interiors seeking a delicate balance between theatricality and minimalism.

Paolo Vernier's Leo table represents a daring exploration of structural minimalism. Leo's remarkably slim pedestal column—only 26 mm in diameter—challenges structural limits while maintaining impressive strength, effortlessly supporting substantial marble tops. Its restrained elegance and versatile aesthetic enable it to harmonize beautifully with various seating styles, reinforcing Leo as a quintessential piece for contemporary spaces. The Leo collection includes dining, bistro, and coffee tables, each echoing Vernier’s commitment to functional artistry and timeless design.

Collectively, these three collections embody MIDJ’s sophisticated approach to design, celebrating furniture as sculptural art that enhances daily life. Each piece reflects a meticulous attention to detail, impeccable craftsmanship, and an intuitive understanding of how form and function converge in modern interiors. MIDJ’s latest offerings are more than furniture—they are thoughtful interventions designed to elevate everyday spaces into curated experiences of beauty, comfort, and refinement.
