Emmemobili represents an excellent case of eclecticism in the realm of modern furnishing. The imaginative works highlight the company’s artisan expertise, which has reached new heights thanks to the almost impossible projects realized in collaboration with Ferruccio Laviani. Starting from its inception 25 years ago, wood has been part of the brand’s DNA, and used to achieve unexpected effects, including inlaid houndstooth or rounded, cloth-like table tops. Every year, Emmemobili doesn’t cease to surprise with prodigious works, like 2016’s corner cabinet. The 2016 collection introduces Macassar ebony, finished with lucid blue and green polyester. The Rideau cabinet shows the ability to shape wood as if were fabric, building doors that look as if they were plissé stolen from haute couture.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
