LIVING ROOM TRENDS 2025: THE SOFAS AND ARMCHAIRS THAT STOLE MILAN.

Let’s Talk Living Rooms: My Favorite Sofas and Armchairs from Milan Design Week 2025

There’s something magical about Milan in April. The energy, the inspiration, the ideas floating in the air—and this year, the Milan Design Week truly outdid itself. I couldn’t wait to dive into the heart of the home: the living room.

Let me take you on a little journey through what truly caught my eye (and heart) when it comes to sofas and armchairs—those cozy, welcoming pieces that turn a space into a sanctuary.

Soft, Curvy, and So Inviting

This year, the theme was clear: comfort is key, but never without style. Sofas embraced soft curves and sculptural forms, almost like warm hugs made of fabric. The trend? Generous proportions, inviting silhouettes, and an irresistible tactile appeal.

Modularity took center stage—think of flexible systems that adapt to your space and lifestyle. Whether you're entertaining guests or binge-watching your favorite series, these pieces transform with you. And yes, sustainability is finally more than a buzzword. Many brands are rethinking materials and processes, offering recyclable, modular, and easy-to-disassemble designs.

Now, here are a few gems I absolutely loved:

1. Vivace Armchair by Armani / Casa

Elegant, timeless, and delicately bold—this chair is crafted in curved wood with silk upholstery embroidered in sandy silver tones. It’s a mix of tradition and modernity that fits seamlessly in both classic and contemporary settings.
