Minotti, a concept store in Cologne

A 450m2 space on two levels – created in collaboration with Pesch, historic partner of the brand – has become a must-visit destination. And it embodies a precise idea of living

The concept store, developed on two levels, covers a total area of 450 sq m and has been expanded and renovated by Minotti Studio. The Twiggy seating system by Rodolfo Dordoni takes center stage in the large main window on Kaiser-Wilhelm-Ring with its sophisticated look. On the ground floor, there are a series of dining and living settings with numerous best sellers as the protagonists such as the Wedge dining table, Connery and Horizonte.

The first floor, doubled in its surface, offers distinctive elegance: mirrored walls, dark slatted boiserie and white plaster surfaces. The atmosphere is sophisticated, with a meticulous selection of furniture among icons and recent proposals from the 2023 Collection.

First novelty of 2024, the Goodman seating system designed by Rodolfo Dordoni, which interprets space in an enveloping way. The adjacent area offers a dining area with the Linha table designed by Marcio Kogan / studio mk27 and Raphael armchairs designed by GamFratesi; in addition to a precious Marvin table, a Hamilton seating system, and the Twiggy Bed, all by Rodolfo Dordoni.

Finally, a unique outdoor proposal with the Quadrado seating system and the Torii Nest Outdoor seats. The concept store confirms the quality of Minotti furniture and the international identity of the brand, consolidating the presence of Minotti in Germany.
