A new trend is emerging in contemporary design that celebrates unusual and interactive textures to give depth and character to spaces. This trend, known as Hyper-Texture, invites to think beyond conventional surfaces, enriching the environment with tactile and multi-sensory elements that stimulate perception. The idea is to create captivating and joyful experiences, where soft and boldly shaped materials evoke a sense of lightness and familiarity.

An example of this innovative approach is the CLOUDS Collection by IAMMI: seats made of recycled foam rubber that reinterpret the grace of clouds, combining sustainability and ethereal aesthetics. This collection not only brings a touch of serenity to environments, but also represents a balance between environmental responsibility and avant-garde design.

During Milan Design Week, in the MelzoDodici showroom, materia-studio presented a custom-made stoneware kitchen, designed in exclusive collaboration with an Italian company. Simultaneously, they curated the ‘Of Water and Matter’ exhibition for Teorema and collaborated with BOON_Editions and TOOY, exploring bold shapes and refined materials through installations celebrating minimalism, craftsmanship and innovation.
