laCividina x 4

The opening of the first showroom in Milan, the first home living catalogue, and two new collections: the Friuli-based company presents four new developments for Design Week in Milan

Specialized in contract market, laCividina also grasps the opportunities of this moment in history, entering the residential scene while at the same time reinforcing the company’s position in the field of major projects.

Not just hospitality, not just offices, but also homes, accelerating the new strategy which Fulvio Bulfoni – founder and CEO of the firm – is implementing to ensure a solid present and a bright future, in which the brand becomes more and more recognizable.

The more than just emerging talent Federica Biasi, in her first experience with laCividina, ideally builds a bridge between contract operations and home furnishings with Timo, a seating collection (dining chairs, lounge chairs and settees) that takes its inspiration from nature, directly shifting the production of laCividina onto a specific middle ground dedicated to those who work, who inhabit, and who work where they live.

This middle ground is also the destination of the second new entry, by the Dutch super-specialists of UNStudio and their principal Ben van Berkel: not a collection, but a system for composition of unique, different interior architectures. Node+ is a comfortable and highly functional set of seating and complements that embody new residential scenarios, while writing an important chapter in the contract history of laCividina.

Not just products but also retail operations, which take on a central role for the company: on Via Rutilia, 4 minutes away from Fondazione Prada, laCividina has opened its first showroom in a sort of “non-zone,” far from the dynamics of the Fuorisalone. This choice reflects the desire to be there, but without special effects, becoming a concrete presence (in an area that is nevertheless opening up, thanks to urban planning measures for renewal). Concrete and substantial: just like the character of the company’s CEO.
