Integrated housing ecosystem

Arrital's evolution towards a harmonious, total and coherent “home” project continues with the new bathroom collections, the Solaria outdoor kitchen and the inclusion in Ak_Project of the Circle modules, presented during MDW25 at the Showcase in Corso Europa. All the novelties are signed by designer Franco Driusso

On the occasion of MDW25 Arrital presents at its Showcase in Corso Europa 22 an immersive concept emblematic of its vision of living: Lifesphere. It is a new design balance-the inner landscape of the self-where the person becomes the focus of a living ecosystem in which technology, materials and spaces connect in perfect harmony. Dream worlds generated by artificial intelligence are transformed into visual metaphors, revealing the deep connection between the individual and the surrounding elements in a concept that expresses the harmonious integration of humanity, technology and nature.

In this reflection on design and on how the interaction between elements and environments redefines contemporary living, the brand’s new products find their rightful place: the Solaria Outdoor Kitchen, the new concept of the bathroom space, and the evolution of Ak_Project, the transversal kitchen system designed in harmony with the bathroom and in continuity with the Feeling Home living room, presented with Circle modules.

The entire Arrital Showcase has been redesigned to offer an immersive and engaging experience. On the ground floor, the design integrates kitchen, living and bathroom in dialogue with each other through innovative materials and dramatic lighting. The brand also introduces this year a complete system of bathroom collections and furniture solutions designed by architect Franco Driusso, conceived to combine design and functionality.

Modo Project by Arrital

The bathroom is no longer just a functional environment, but becomes a place for relaxation, reflection and regeneration, a fluid and harmonious space where materials, light and details come together to create a new living experience. Fine materials such as stone, wood, glass, Corian, and oxidized metals are emphasized by integrated lighting, which creates welcoming and relaxing environments, with modular systems and intelligent solutions for space optimization.

There are five collections: MUST for those seeking a sculptural and refined design, 360 GRADI highly customizable, LYMPHA with distinctive and tailored elements, MODO PROJECT modern and functional, with a touch of softness in the lines, and MODO LAUNDRY to meet new functional needs such as laundry organization.

Going up to the second floor, the protagonist is Ak_Project, which presents Circle modules, new finishes-Metal Graphite and tops in Cosmic Black (a hybrid material between granite and quartzite)-columns with integrated lighting and details that enhance the modularity of the kitchen such as the rounded end block. The intuition plays on an idea of modularity that is not limited to end units alone, but introduces integrated curved elements for greater design freedom.

The new Circle configuration allows for more fluid compositions, enhancing the perception of space and making Ak_Project even more sophisticated and ergonomic. The path continues in the basement, designed as a sensory experience, where natural wood, light and textured surfaces create an immersive environment.

Finally, the big news of this edition is the eighth floor, an outdoor space dedicated to Solaria cuisine. The rooftop, overlooking Milan, will be an exclusive area for events, presentations and meetings with industry professionals. Solaria, the brand’s big 2025 innovation, marks Arrital’s debut in the world of outdoor design. Designed to withstand the most extreme weather conditions, it is made of AISI 316 steel and advanced technical materials, combining aesthetics and high performance for outdoor spaces.
