The air of change is already here. 11 years of journey, projects, dreams realized and cherished things left behind.
Nostalgia reminds us where we come from, but it’s the excitement for what’s to come that guides us into the new year; new ideas, new challenges, new possibilities.

A beauty shot!
A quick showcase of the social campaign, directed and developed by us, for one of our concept stores. The project revolves around the theme of beauty, paired with the convivial moment typical of an aperitif. The idea of matching cocktails with the brand identity colors, which also define the space designed by us, comes from the concept of cohesion among all elements: a concept that brings together two seemingly distant realities, now perfectly coexisting in this new store.

🎨 COLORS. MATERIALS. FINISHES.
A hands-on journey into the world of CMF – Color, Material & Finishes.
We guided a group of Product and Graphic Design students from IED Milano through an immersive workshop co-curated with Alessandro Pennesi of @foro.studio , as part of the Sambonet Design Hub Project.
📍 Three phases, one goal: expand their design perspective. 1. Explore & Discovery – Touch, observe, smell. 2. Pick & Play – Select, compose, shape. 3. Inspire & Refine – Trend forecasting and future visions.
Grazie mille to all partners and students involved — this workshop was proof that CMF is not just a detail, but a fundamental language of design.
Because design is always about people, materials, and the stories they create together ✨

The aim of this project proposal is to breathe new life into the San Domino lighthouse through a concept centred on the harmony created by contrast. The restoration of the lighthouse is approached with a conservationist mindset—fully respecting the ancient structure—while the interior design features a careful selection of high-end furnishings, allowing the project to compete within the contemporary hospitality landscape. It aims to offer guests a contemplative experience where the interiors—while sophisticated—echo the simplicity and colours inspired by the island itself.

In the serene moments just before the alarm rings, when the world is still hushed and dreams linger at the edge of consciousness, there exists a fleeting state of bliss. This is a time when the mind drifts between sleep and wakefulness—a rare opportunity to savour the sweetness of doing nothing, or as we Italians call it, “il dolce far niente”. This unique, contemplative experience is the essence of our concept: a dreamlike interlude, a celebration of tranquillity, a pause in the relentless pace of modern life where one can savour the luxury of idle moments.
“Doze” provides a physical space for relaxation and a conceptual haven where one can momentarily escape the pressures of daily life. It is a place where the mundane melts away, replaced by the gentle hum of tranquillity and the freedom to simply be.
“Doze” is a project for @ikea at @viennadesignweek

our last installation “Vanitas” explores the fleeting nature of life within a sacred space. Botticino marble gravel forms dunes, symbolizing the 701,280 hours of an average lifespan. Mirrors in the gravel reflect light onto an inverted rose, embodying fragility and beauty. With the sound of ticking and torches symbolizing life’s stages, this installation invites deep reflection on time and mortality.

Here’s our latest materials moodboard. We’ve paired pixelated textures that evoke a raw, edgy feel with solid velvet tones that offer a soft, nuanced perception of color. An interesting blend of contrast and harmony.

KAIROS - un buon momento
15-21 April 2024 Milano Design Week
c/o Giardino Aristide Calderini

Dal 15 al 21 aprile 2024, l’installazione di FORO Studio apre le porte a un viaggio di riflessione e ricentramento nel cuore della città. Un’immersione nel momento presente ospitata nel suggestivo Giardino Calderini, autentico “giardino segreto” nel cuore di Milano.
Il progetto installativo Kairos abbraccia il concetto latino dell’hic et nunc - qui e ora, trasformandolo in un’esperienza fisica e contemplativa. Questa installazione offre al pubblico l’opportunità di immergersi nel momento presente, unendo design, filosofia e psicologia in un abitacolo progettato per riconnettere l’individuo con se stesso e con l’universo circostante.
Ispirato dalla pratica del radicamento e dalle filosofie esistenzialiste di pensatori come Martin Heidegger e Walter Benjamin, Kairos si propone di creare uno spazio intimo in cui il visitatore può ritrovare se stesso. La consapevolezza del momento presente diventa il filo conduttore del progetto, un richiamo a cogliere le opportunità che si presentano nel qui e ora.
Il rifugio effimero offerto da Kairos è rappresentato da una struttura immersiva che invita i visitatori a prendersi una pausa dalla frenesia quotidiana. La particolarità di questo luogo di riflessione risiede in una copertura a specchio aperta verso il cielo, che crea un’esperienza visiva immersiva.
