IKO
Design Rodolfo Dordoni
The eye-catching design of Iko collection suits the competent, classy public who recognizes the importance and intrinsic value of elegance, exclusiveness and understated luxury. Using unusual materials, such as specially-finished steel and other luxurious materials such as hide, marble and brass combined with the craftsmanship of the manufacturer, the final result creates an elegant and harmonious mood, expressing high formal and qualitative value.
MAJAL
Design Carlo Colombo
Pave the way for a majestic double-size bed that concentrates and exalts the textile soul of Flou. Textiles re-dominate in the geometric shapes of the large soft headboard that can be easily imaginable as a modern boiserie. The designer called it Majal, as he was inspired by women in India who dye large lengths of fabric and when wringing-out the excess color, ribbons are formed that are superimposed to create delightful patterns.
GENTLEMAN
Design Carlo Colombo
Gentleman is a collection for true connoisseurs, the ideal accomplice for aristocratic and exclusive homes. With a refined personality, as its name would suggest, this collection has expanded with an addition of a new element. The large full-length mirror joins and enhances the matching pieces in the collection: the bed and the sofas with double covers with piping, the chest-of-drawers, the night-stands, the writing desk, the tallboy and the cigar unit.
OLIVIER
Design Garbin - Dell’Orto
The way the home has changed: today domestic spaces are liberal and amorphous, with no clear divisions between the sleeping quarters and the living area. This was the designers’ starting point when they worked on the sofa, the bed and the wide range of Olivier accessories. Their genius ideas resulted with a new sofa that is spacious and commanding, as comfortable as a bed, with the predominant feature being the extreme arrangement flexibility and versatility. A new series of low-level tables topped with elegant marble completes the collection.
WOOD
Design Garbin - Dell’Orto
The Flou wardrobe collection is expanded further with a new door option in coffee-colored wood, embellished by an elegant sinuous handle in burnished metal. It is a fitting tribute to wood as a living, noble and natural material.
