Fratelli Boffi’s latest collection, “Chromatica,” unveils a captivating exploration of fluid architectural forms expressed through a rich and nuanced color palette. This innovative project transcends traditional notions of furniture, presenting instead a series of pieces that seem to flow and interact with the surrounding space.
The eclectic soul of Fratelli Boffi reinvents itself at Salone del Mobile 2025 with Cromatica, a brand new collection and an immersive exhibition curated by STORAGEMILANO, confirming a collaboration that began last year. The encounter of cabinet-making tradition and design innovation translates into a radical vision of space, a flowing architecture that challenges the boundaries of living, combining rigor and experimentation.
Cromatica is more than just a collection: it is a study into the perception of space and color. STORAGEMILANO and Fratelli Boffi turn the Salone stand into a theater of forms and illusions, where design intertwines with the sensorial dimension of living.
Chromatica embodies a design philosophy where rigid boundaries dissolve, giving way to organic silhouettes and unexpected juxtapositions. Each piece, from seating to storage solutions, appears sculpted rather than constructed, evoking a sense of continuous movement and effortless grace.
Central to this vision is the masterful use of color. Fratelli Boffi delves into a spectrum of hues, employing both bold statements and subtle gradations to define volumes and create dynamic visual narratives. The chromatic choices are not merely decorative; they are integral to the architectural language of the collection, enhancing the perception of depth, texture, and spatial relationships.
Chromatica invites a re-evaluation of how furniture inhabits and shapes our living environments. These are not static objects but rather dynamic elements that contribute to a sense of fluidity and transformative possibility within the home. The collection speaks to a contemporary sensibility that values adaptability, sensory experience, and the seamless integration of form and color. With Chromatica, Fratelli Boffi continues to push the boundaries of design, offering a vision of living spaces that are as expressive and evolving as the lives within them.
Fratelli Boffi Volta Dining and Lounge Armchair
Available in two versions, one crafted entirely from open-pore green-stained maple wood with a glossy finish, the other upholstered in velvet with a glossy lacquered green base and front, the Volta armchair is the manifesto of the new 2025 collection by STORAGEMILANO. It draws on the architectural language of arches and cross vaults, reinterpreting it with a bentwood structure, where actual vaults define the lower part, conveying dynamism to the item.
Its compact outline and its arched legs create pure and flowing geometries, evoking the visionary collages of radical architecture, with an aesthetic deeply rooted in the present and a refined retro touch inspired by 70s interiors. In its padded version, the glossy lacquered front creates an elegant contrast with the iridescent velvet in the green tones of the padding, emphasizing the optical effects of light and volume and giving life to soft, enveloping atmospheres.
The internal and external padding, along with the seat cushion, guarantees great comfort, intensifying the lounge dimension of the armchair and making it perfect for both relaxation and dining purposes. With its completely customizable finishes, including its maple wood and eucalyptus structure, Volta conveys the contemporary character of the project, thanks to its refined materials and its accurate attention to detail.
Fratelli Boffi Sovrana Chaise Longue
Sovrana is a hybrid item halfway between a chaise longue and a daybed, both sophisticated and sculptural, designed for living areas and relaxation environments. It stands out for its large inlaid high-gloss polyester lacquer eucalyptus base, which gives life to a spectacular checkerboard: a visually powerful element, capable of turning into a refined architectural sign.
The imposing padded structure, slightly staggered from the floor, guarantees great comfort and invites you to rest. Inside the stand, Sovrana is displayed in green velvet, creating an elegant color effect that amplifies the perception of depth and movement.
With its customizable upholstery, selectable from the fabrics in the collection or on request, Sovrana harmoniously integrates into the surrounding environment, becoming an actual focal point of the space.
Fratelli Boffi Arcano Coffee Table
One of the most surprising elements in the collection, Arcano is a coffee table that hides an unexpected detail within itself: an elegant central chest with opening shelves and hidden compartments, entirely made of high-gloss polyester lacquer eucalyptus veneered wood. The overall effect, when the structure is closed, is that of a compact, sophisticated monomaterical cube, which only reveals its true nature as soon as it opens.
Inside, the brass-colored mirror glass creates an intriguing visual and material effect, emphasizing the duality between aesthetics and functionality. The carefully carved shelves and the refined surfaces recall the checkerboard layout of Sovrana’s base, adding a vintage touch that blends naturally into contemporary settings. The Arcano coffee table combines formal refinement with a playful spirit, turning into a unique piece of furniture, capable of surprising and introducing a touch of mystery and originality into the space.
Fratelli Boffi Ritmica Bookcase
Ritmica is a double-sided, load-bearing and modular bookcase, designed to integrate with elegance and functionality into living spaces and professional environments. The rack mechanism of the struts is made of solid walnut with an internal metal core that increases structural stability, combining artisan precision and construction technology. Although the rack represents a typically “industrial” item, within the project it acquires a Brancusian aura, creating a suggestive combination of construction technique and cultural and artistic inspiration.
The shelves, with shaped edges, also in solid dark-stained walnut wood, and the glossy lacquered tops, can be easily disassembled and repositioned, offering extreme compositional flexibility. The refined finishes and functional design convey the system a contemporary and highly customizable character, able to adapt to the most diverse needs.
Fratelli Boffi Equilibria Writing Desk
Equilibria is a desk with a minimal and refined design, created for home-office environments that seek a contemporary, elegant and rigorous style. The thin metal structure, with a particular natural brushed finish, combines a see-through glass top, conveying visual lightness to the whole piece and paying homage to the simplicity of the shapes.
Anchored to the structure, the veneered drawers in glossy lacquered eucalyptus wood, enrich the composition with material warmth, creating a harmonious balance between structural transparency and aesthetic solidity. Lightness, functionality and attention to detail make Equilibria an ideal addition for elegant and rigorous spaces.
Fratelli Boffi Archi Table
Representing the evolution of the iconic Archi table, this new version introduces a circular shape keeping the architectural mark of the project intact. The base, composed of 4 legs that come together to form a sequence of arches inspired by Renaissance vaults, is configured as a micro architecture, elevating the table to a real sculpture. The circular top in high-gloss polyester lacquer eucalyptus, carved so as to create a refined pattern with 4 segments, together with the glossy lacquered base, produces a dynamic visual play of lights and shadows.
The new version of Archi is a tribute to the culture of Italian design, capable of blending formal beauty and constructive mastery, transforming an everyday object into a celebration of historical memory and design creativity.
Fratelli Boffi Nocina Chairs
In the Cromatica collection, the Nocina chair is re-presented in a renewed version, which further emphasizes the combination of craftsmanship and innovation. Made of solid walnut with high-gloss lacquer, this new interpretation enhances the contrast between the warm consistency of wood and the reflective surface of the lacquering, in a refined game of balance between tradition and modernity.
Available in three variants — with armrests, without armrests and lounge — Nocina stands out for its solid walnut structure, which envelops the backrest with a continuous outline, evoking the flowing lines of organic design. The large padding of the seat, upholstered with velvet in different shades of green that characterizes the entire collection, ensures greater comfort, making this chair perfect both for elegant home environments and for high-level contract settings.
A tribute to the great school of Italian cabinet-making, reinterpreted with a modern and sophisticated language.
Fratelli Boffi Dialogo Lounge Sofa
Dialogo is a modular sofa with a sculptural and functional character, redesigned in the 2025 collection with new proportions, finishes and a more domestic aesthetic. The seat conveys a feeling of enveloping comfort, as does the high-gloss polyester lacquer eucalyptus wood base resulting in a visual effect based on consistency and contemporary rigor.
The system includes a rotating base that allows the seats to assume different contours: front, side by side or opposing, depending on usage needs. The modular compositions do not only include individual elements, but also double and angular modules, offering flexible solutions for residential and contract spaces.
Dialogo represents a new vision of living, where versatility, beauty and formal research blend in a single design language.
Fratelli Boffi In-Tarsio Wall paneling
Redesigned for the Chromatica collection, In-Tarsio is an architectural wall paneling that combines tradition and formal experimentation. Covered with a glossy lacquered finish that enhances its brightness and visual vibrations, In-Tarsio is inspired by Italian marquetry but overcomes two-dimensionality to become a dynamic three-dimensional composition.
The surface, punctuated by a geometric grid, houses three-dimensional wooden elements in glossy lacquered maple, eucalyptus, heat-treated oak and walnut, processed with numerical control technology. Through rotations and overlays, these elements create a pattern that recalls the optical illusions of kinetic and spatial art. Inside the grid, the alternation of depth and relief creates a trompe-l’œil effect that varies depending on the point of observation, conveying dynamism and movement to the space.
In addition to its aesthetic value, the In-Tarsio project makes it possible to combine equipped storage units — such as hangers, bar furniture, plate racks — or even doors and display units, highlighting a high level of customization. In-Tarsio is then configured as a custom-made architectural installation, a symbol of Fratelli Boffi’s craftsmanship and tailor-made vocation, capable of transforming surfaces into actual designer sceneries.
