laquered wine cabinet, made by La Erre Trunks 

(I have my own design wine cabinet which also has more functions at its back and what it lacks are only the wheels, and I dare to say it looks more elegant :))

Desire for comfort

That is the new color of the year 2025, chosen by Pantone and everybody talks about it:





It is probably one of the most used colors and one of the most popular ones. If you are not sure how to use colors, then beige is safe one to use ;) Still, it is soft and really beautiful and most important - it answers to our desire for comfort. Probably everybody likes it. Famous fashion houses use it as a symbol of luxury, people who fear from bright colors wear beige, which, for me, is better that black :)

So, I finally agree with Pantone's choice. In so many stressful years it is obvious that we all need that feeling of comfort.

As for interior design - this is great color, effortless to use and match. You can definitely have your home oasis of comfort and luxe in Mocha Mousse. Get some inspiration:

As you can see - this is also like some natural stone and wood colors, too, but beware of being boring.. It is easy with too much beige.

The Euroluce International Lighting Forum

Occhio Luna

Lighting takes center stage again at the new addition of Salone del Mobile in April 2025.
And I am very pleased to learn that because lighting design is one of my favorite themes in every interior design project. And because I completely agree with what Carlo Urbinati, President of Assoluce of FederlegnoArredo says: 

“Light not only makes things appear but creates atmospheres, depth and perceptions capable of interpreting architectures and open spaces..."
Oblo, design Paola Navone

Euroluce is back again this time with a new content-focused addition: the first international biennial “occasion” devoted to the central role of light in architectural design - the first edition of The Euroluce International Lighting Forum, being held as part of Euroluce 2025, at Rho Fiera Milano on 10th and 11th AprilThe Forum was presented as a world premiere in Munich, the first stop on the “Salone, Milano and Beyond” tour promoting the Salone del Mobile.Milano 2025.

Alessi

Another reason for following what comes with it is the idea that "At a time when cross-discipline collaboration is crucial for tackling contemporary challenges, the International Lighting Forum will be a hub of ideas and visions that encourage dialogue, laying fertile ground for innovation."

Bulgarian Furniture Design - a Higher Level

I am impressed with the growth of Bulgarian furniture design - both, as quality of design and implementation, that we saw at the annual exhibition "BULGARIAN PRODUCT DESIGN: FURNITURE" this week, organized by MD MAGAZINE. They are beautiful and functional, made of quality materials:


Uilo Sofa, BoBox, 4th Armchair


COSH

Cosh Next to Me


Ilian Milinov - Hestia sideboard



Ilian Milinov - Multifunctional Table
Just some of the most impressive designs.
The exhibition is part of the annual Melba Design Festival.
