Porada presents the Twenty-Five collection, comprising over 20 products conceived and designed together with the brand’s long-term collaborators—both Italian and international designers. It’s a proven partnership that allows professionals to express their creative flair and Porada to bring out the aesthetic soul that so strongly distinguishes it.
“In the Twenty-Five collection, the soft, gentle, and sometimes generous lines that distinguish the Cabiatese brand are honoured and combined with decisive details that give the products their distinctive character,” says Carlo Ballabio, Porada’s research and development manager. He continues: “As is customary, pieces that are collection extensions are combined with completely new and original designs that may, in the future, give rise to new collections. The inspiration for each product is rooted in our heritage—the teachings of the great masters who have preceded us and who have traced the furrow of a contemporary and timeless style in which Porada finds its own language.”
Porada Agea – Carlo Ballabio
Agea is an executive desk with an elegant and functional design characterised by a structure in solid canaletta walnut, an essence that lends robustness and a refined finish, visible in the natural grain that characterises each piece. The side elements of the desk have three drawers, perfect for providing ample storage space and keeping the top tidy. The worktop, available in wood or leather, is designed for optimal comfort by combining practicality and style.
To meet technological needs, the desk is equipped with a Schuko socket and two retractable USB sockets, which can be positioned on the right or left according to customer preference. These details make Agea not only a desk with refined aesthetics, but also highly functional, perfectly integrating technology and design in a single piece of furniture. The possibility of choosing the position of the sockets adds a further level of customisation, adding versatility and adaptability to the product’s features.
Porada Cuna – Emmanuel Gallina
The Cuna executive armchair with synchronised movement enters the Porada collection as an elegant solution to complete the design of the working desks in the catalogue. Designed to offer comfort and style, Cuna is enriched by a swivel mechanism, as well as the possibility of adjusting the height of the seat and the degree of resistance of the backrest. The shaped backrest structure is made of solid canaletta walnut and is the armchair’s distinctive element: a curved silhouette that extends elegantly and seamlessly into the armrests, enveloping the back cushion to make Cuna welcoming and visually harmonious.
The product’s versatility also translates into a choice of different versions: with a high or low backrest, with or without castors. A product that represents a perfect fusion of design and ergonomics, ideal for work or home office environments.
Porada Akeru – Giuseppe Viganò
A perfect balance between functionality and elegance, the Akeru sideboard was born from the desire to highlight those sections of the product that usually remain more hidden due to design choices. Available in the traditional version and as a TV stand, the Akeru sideboard always features a Canaletta walnut structure and a marble top to maximise the elegance of the product.
The central compartment is open and covered in marble or wood; this feature becomes the aesthetic key point of the product, an architectural detail that lends personality to the piece. The possibility of adding an extra-clear glass element further customises the organisation of space in the central compartment. On the side, the two wood doors conceal compartments fitted with glass shelves that complete the design of the product with a light and contemporary touch, creating a material contrast with the solidity and veining of the marble.
In the TV stand variant, the top has a grommet hole that allows access to the lower compartment, equipped with a double bottom, which guarantees easy maintenance of the cabling; to facilitate storage operations, the back panel is removable.
Porada Bold – Giuseppe Viganò
The Bold coffee tables are a perfect example of the combination of aesthetics and functionality. The design, with its barrel shape completely without edges, enhances the soft and welcoming stylistic dictates typical of Porada production. Made of brushed solid ash, the Bold coffee tables are aesthetically characterised by a central geometric void that gives the volume a sense of dynamism in a balanced coexistence of full and empty, solidity and lightness.
A harmoniously monolithic and sculptural product, robust and light at the same time. The top features a hinted perimeter moulding that underlines Porada’s extensive know-how in woodworking.
Porada Callisto Brillo – Carlo Ballabio
Created as a collection extension of the successful Callisto and Callisto Mix with which it shares the structural genesis, the Callisto Brillo coffee table series is distinguished by its choice of finishes. In fact, they can only be configured in the new ‘brillo’ lacquers: deep brown, greige and rouge brun. Their clean lines make them ideal for placement in contemporary and sophisticated environments, while the ‘brillo’ finishes add character and incisiveness to the overall aesthetics of the product.
Porada Côté – Gabriele e Oscar Buratti
Versatile coffee table that can take on various functions because it can adapt to different forms of hospitality, from formal to more informal contexts.
The metal base in grey pewter finish follows the elliptical shape of the top, creating a visual harmony between structure and surface. The top is made of wood inlaid with a ‘chevron’ motif to give the product an aura of elegance and to emphasise Porada’s sharp woodworking skills; alternatively the top can be made of leather, Rock or glossy lacquer in deep brown, greige, rouge brun finishes. The pair of legs supporting the structure, positioned reciprocally in opposite torsion, join the top to the base in an original and dynamic way, maximising the aesthetic impact of the product.
Porada Enook – Marconato e Zappa
The Enook coffee tables evolve the design of the Eckig coffee tables, born from the creativity of the same designers; the main novelty lies in the silhouette of the base, which changes to a cylindrical shape, giving the product a softer, more fluid volume. The top, on the other hand, takes up the exact square shape with rounded corners that characterises the design of the Eckig coffee tables, creating a clear and defined stylistic link between the two products.
The Enook coffee tables can be customised in the new ‘brillo’ lacquers (rouge brun, greige and deep brown); the lacquered finish can be applied to the entire coffee table – base and top – or just to the base and the frame of the top, which can be customised in the marbles present in the collection. A combination of materials and finishes that allows Enook to be adapted to various environments and styles, giving the product elegance, versatility and originality.
Porada Exedra – Essetipi
The Exedra pedestals are characterised by an expertly crafted and shaped solid canaletta walnut frame that highlights Porada’s skill in working with wood. The top is available in marble, for a sophisticated effect, in essence to match the structure, or glossy lacquered in ‘brillo’ finishes (rouge brun, greige, deep brown). A metal element, structural and at the same time aesthetic, finishes the lower section of the pedestal; available in Kajal finish, the metal detail gives a modern quid to Exedra, balancing the warm elegance of Canaletta walnut and completing a sophisticated and functional design, ideal for elegant and contemporary environments.
Porada Ginkgo XL – Niccolò Devetag
Ginkgo XL represents an evolution of the Ginkgo armchair, which won the Porada International Design Award 2022 and entered the collection in 2024. A new version is now proposed, featuring more generous and abundant shapes, ideal for markets that appreciate cosier silhouettes. While fully maintaining the aesthetic and technical characteristics of Ginkgo, the XL version is designed for those seeking a wider and more comfortable seat.
The seat of Ginkgo XL is lower and deeper than that of the standard version, a detail that transforms it into a true relaxation armchair, ideal for moments of rest also thanks to the ergonomics of the seat and backrest. The frame is made of solid canaletta walnut with an outer shell in leather available in the fabrics of the collection. The cover of the seat and back cushion is removable and available in all the fabrics of the collection, while the cordonetto in the colours of the Zenith collection.
The aesthetics of the product are completed at the back by a wooden frog in the same shade as the frame. The seat is padded in different densities to increase the comfort level of the seat, while the backrest is shaped in polyurethane foam.
Porada Koji– Giuseppe Viganò
A modular sofa with linear, soft and generous shapes. The individual volumes, which allow multiple configurations, are characterised by a solid wood detail, conferring the typical Porada allure that derives from the skilful working of the wood. The wooden detail, encircling the volume of the seat, creates an aesthetic play that highlights the softness of the upholstery. Comfortable and functional, Koji sofa can be upholstered in the leathers and fabrics of the Porada collection and has a removable cover.
Porada Koko – Tollgard&Castellani
Koko is a small armchair with ottoman that stands out for its balanced balance of rigidity and ergonomics, strength and lightness, design and functionality. The structure supporting the seat is made of solid Canaletta walnut, which not only provides a solid base but also embraces the seat itself, creating an enveloping effect for moments of comfort and relaxation. The essence is surmounted by an anatomical shell moulded with a layer of polyurethane fixed to the wooden structure. The shell encloses in a single element the function of seat and back, without solution of continuity, and can be customised in the fabrics and leathers in the Porada catalogue.
The product’s comfort is also facilitated by the presence of a height-adjustable padded headrest, tone on tone with the shell and characterised by details in black chrome metal, a finish that is also found in the feet. Koko is a product that blends elegance and comfort and encompasses an aesthetic represented by the use of fine materials and a design that pays attention to detail.
Porada Koko Pouf – Tollgard&Castellani
Koko is a pouf, combined with the armchair of the same name, that stands out for its balanced balance of rigidity and ergonomics, strength and lightness, design and functionality. The structure is made of solid canaletta walnut, underlining Porada’s know-how in woodworking. The essence is surmounted by an anatomical shell moulded with a layer of polyurethane fixed to the structure in canaletta walnut, which can be customised in the fabrics and leathers in the Porada catalogue. The detail of the black chrome metal feet complete the stylish features. Koko is a product that, in synergy with the armchair of the same name, blends elegance and comfort and encompasses an aesthetic represented by the use of fine materials and careful design.
Porada Latch – Meneghello Paolelli
A new technological introduction in terms of materials characterises the design of the Latch coffee tables, which are available in two height variants; a new thermoformed crystal glass with a Terre finish reminiscent of the warm, shiny tones of bronze is introduced. The structure of Latch is characterised by three legs made of solid brushed ash wood that are distinguished by their elliptical shape and an arrangement that makes them well separated from each other, a solution that gives the product lightness and elegance.
Joining the structure are two connecting elements in a brushed black matt metal finish that create a harmonious material contrast with the ash sections. Latch is a collection of coffee tables that combines precious materials and new processing techniques to obtain a functional, elegant and versatile product.
Porada Augusto – David Dolcini
The Augusto dining table presents itself as a true sculptural work combining craftsmanship and creative innovation. The protagonist of the product is the modular base in solid canaletta walnut, composed of interlocking elements that allow Augusto to adapt to different interior design needs, as well as providing a stable and long-lasting construction. The top is available in all the variants of the Porada collection – crystal, essence, marble and Rock – and in different finishes to guarantee the customer the highest level of product customisation based on specific style requirements.
From a conceptual point of view, the table design is rooted in Roman cultural history, inspired by one of the most iconic architectural elements: the arch. Each table leg, in fact, is a contemporary reinterpretation of a vertically bipartite arch with the two halves positioned opposite each other. In this way, a balanced and symmetrical rhythm develops that represents the primary aesthetic quid of the product.
Porada Petra – Meneghello Paolelli
A chair with or without armrests characterised by an extreme lightness of form and a careful balance of solids and voids, Petra embodies versatility, functionality and elegance. The solid canaletta walnut frame and the upholstery are separated while coexisting in perfect harmony; this separation is a winning feature in everyday use because it facilitates grip, making moving the chair more comfortable and practical. The separation of wood and upholstery also gives the Petra chair a certain flexibility in the backrest, improving comfort. A seat that is visually light but with a strong aesthetic quid, practical and functional that guarantees a high level of adaptability in different interior design projects.
Porada Ronny – Gabriele e Oscar Buratti
A modular sofa with multiple configurations and welcoming, generous shapes, embraced by a structure in wood. A system in which formality and informality, elegance and comfort, rigour and softness intertwine. The soft textile cushions follow the silhouette of the wood, drawing soft, enveloping lines, folds and pleats that become the hallmarks of Ronny’s aesthetics.
Porada Softbay pouf – Giuseppe Viganò
A new pouf element joins the successful Softbay collection, already composed of two beds, a sofa and an armchair, adding a further element of comfort and style. Softbay Pouf is characterised by a one-piece volume with clean lines, embellished with visible criss-cross stitching that ends at the classic angular ‘staple’ feet, typical of the collection of the same name. A central stitching moves the surface, creating a dynamic effect that recalls traditional upholstery work.
Inside, the structure is composed of birch plywood combined with solid fir wood and elastic straps to increase the comfort level of the product. Softbay pouf integrates perfectly with the other elements of the line already in the catalogue and picks up on their style, details and refined design, offering the possibility of extending the range of the collection of the same name in coordinated interior design projects.
Porada Teti – Gabriele e Oscar Buratti
A chair characterised by back legs that almost come together to become a single T-shaped element and that reinterprets a historic design in a contemporary key. The starting point is the skilful workmanship of solid wood typical of Porada: in fact, the development of the design stems from the elliptical section of the solid wood that twists into the back and armrest elements. Teti’s comfort is ensured by the use of a bar of soap- shaped seat cushion, slightly inclined, and a soft back cushion that provides unobtrusive back support. A waxed leather cord in a dark brown finish secures and holds the removable back cushion cover in place.
Porada Tack – Danilo Radice
Tack is a table lamp with soft and delicate lines characterised by an alternation of solids and voids. The structure is made up of a storage base with the function of a tray and a stem in solid canaletta walnut. The joining elements are transformed into decorative details in metal with a brushed bronzed brass finish.
The juxtaposition of different materials gives the Tack lamp a sophisticated, elegant yet incisive design. In order to increase the degree of customisation of the product, it is possible to choose between two dome options: one in smoked glass with an etched white opaline glass diffuser or a white opaline glass dome. These two finishes allow the lamp to be adapted to different atmospheres and furnishing styles, making it a versatile complement with great visual impact.
Porada Tylsa Bar – Danilo Radice
A bar cabinet in ash or canaletta walnut that extends the successful series of the same name with a new element, ideal to enrich and complete dining and living projects. While retaining the original stylistic features of the collection, Tylsa Bar has been designed to enhance its functionality without sacrificing an elegant and refined design.
The bar cabinet is composed of three storage compartments, two side and one central, and a large drawer positioned externally in the lower section. On the inside, the central compartment features a backlit smoked mirror back panel that visually amplifies the space and a solid wood cup holder for efficient organisation of the bar area.
A backlit glass shelf in the new ‘brillo’ deep brown, greige or rouge brun finishes and a removable tray covered in leather provide a double work surface to maximise the functionality of Tylsa Bar and allow for convenient preparation of drinks. There is also an internal and an external drawer, equipped and with a bottom covered in Cuoietto in a dark brown, rope or rouge brun finish to match the colour of the glass back of the countertop.
A final touch of elegance and practicality is provided by the LED lighting in all compartments, which allows the product to be used even in dimly lit environments. The handles of all the compartments are recessed and made of metal base with a Bronzoro finish that gives the product a greater quid character and contemporary elegance. The Bronzoro finish is also present in the metal base, which lends stability to the product. The bar top is available in either wood or marble. Tylsa Bar represents a perfect example of balance and equilibrium between aesthetics and functionality, designed to easily adapt to different environments and meet different interior design requirements.
Porada Ziggy 15 – Carlo Ballabio
The Ziggy 15 coffee table is the latest addition to the successful Ziggy collection, designed for large and structured living spaces thanks to its important and generous shapes. The coffee table picks up on the stylistic and aesthetic details typical of the Ziggy line, composed of tables, coffee tables, consoles, bedside tables and beds, also sharing the available finishes. Its generous dimensions are designed to meet the needs of markets that specifically require products with more generous shapes, without losing the elegance and refinement that distinguish the Ziggy series.
