Collection de meubles Situér Milan, Milan
International ideas competition for Situér Milano, an Italian metal furniture brand, to design a three-piece collection extending its bent-steel language in Milan, Italy.
Situér Milano, a Milan-based design brand specialising in bent sheet metal furniture, invites architects and designers to conceive a coordinated mini collection of three elements: one principal furniture piece and two complementary objects. The competition asks entrants to interpret and extend the brand’s structural language, rooted in folded metal, controlled curvature and modular clarity.
The brief tests how a coherent family of objects can define spatial character across domestic and retail settings. Proposals must demonstrate formal consistency, rational assembly and industrial feasibility, as the winning collection will be prototyped and commercially produced. The central challenge lies in balancing expressive design with material efficiency and production logic within strict dimensional and fabrication parameters.
