Molteni

Refinement, sensual flow of lines, and meticulous attention to details – just a few characteristics of Molteni&C.

The story of this Italian brand began in 1934, when the young ambitious entrepreneur, Angelo Molteni, opened his workshop in the province of Monza-e-Brianza, a furniture hub in Italy. Thanks to the skillful craftsmanship and the high quality of their products, the fame of the brand spread rapidly. Soon, what started as a small artisanal shop transformed into a full-fledged factory. Molteni was among the first Italian industrialists to completely automate production, efficiently producing components for their furniture. Even today, Molteni&C remains one of the most technologically advanced furniture manufacturers in the world.

In the 1970s, Arredamenti di Angelo Molteni began active collaborations with other manufacturers. That’s how Citterio firm has joined them, adding the "&C" initial to the brand's name. During this period, under the leadership of legendary designers Angelo Mangiarotti and Luigi Meda, the company introduced a revolutionary modular system for case furniture, setting a new trend in interior design for the following decades. Created back then iconic models such as 505, 7VOLTE7, and PASA are still on the list of the most popular items.

In the 90s, prompted by the renowned designer Jean Nouvel, the brand boldly incorporated cutting-edge technological innovations into its production, consequently fueling greater interest and attention towards its creations.

Collaborations with renowned designers have always been a signature feature of the company. Over the years, Molteni&C has worked with illustrious creators such as Aldo Rossi, Rodolfo Dordoni, Gio Ponti, Foster + Partners, and many more. At the moment, the position of the brand's Creative Director is held by the Belgian architect and designer Vincent Van Duysen, who successfully incorporates the rich heritage of the furniture house in the design of new models.

Exquisite limited collections, crafted by these great masters, adorn not only private residences but also the opulent interiors of Cartier boutiques, Michelin-starred restaurants, the luxurious Walt Disney cruise ship, and even the renowned Venetian theater La Fenice.

Today, Molteni&C specializes in high-quality and functional modular furniture for both indoor and outdoor interiors. The brand's team is continually engaged in a creative quest for unconventional solutions, turning each new collection a work of furniture art.

No wonder that Molteni&C has been awarded the prestigious international Compasso d'Oro award for its profound contributions and impeccable standards. Molteni&C offers timeless designer furniture with a contemporary twist, valued worldwide for its practicality and flawless aesthetics.

Molteni Rooms

Refined, expressive, and informed by a legacy of design excellence, Molteni rooms capture an immediately recognizable Italian sensibility in which functionality marries poetry, transforming every space into an elegant, living narrative. From the living room to the bedroom, from the dining room to the office, Molteni gives shape to spaces that feel instinctively harmonious yet are scrupulously considered.

In the living room, Molteni furniture shapes a refined atmosphere where comfort and sculptural beauty blend. Sofas embrace the fluidity of silhouettes, while the iconic modular systems — descendants of the revolutionary design by Angelo Mangiarotti and Luca Meda — build architectural compositions tailored to individual needs. These pieces do far more than furnish a room; they elevate it with rhythm, balance, and a hint of sophistication.

The bedroom becomes a haven of subtle luxury. Intelligent proportions, soft finishes, and precisely detailed fittings set a scene of intimacy and repose. The beds, wardrobes, and storage solutions speak to the brand's mastery in marrying technology with an artisanal touch, keeping the space serene yet effortlessly functional.

In the dining room, Molteni's tables and chairs epitomize refined conviviality: in a grand room for entertaining or an intimate dining room setting, each piece asserts its sculptural clarity to enhance the architecture of the room. Surfaces, textures, and geometric purity reflect the brand's commitment to timeless elegance.

Under the creative direction of Vincent Van Duysen, every Molteni room is a place in which brand history, visionary collaborations, and the tireless pursuit of excellence come together. Each room becomes a testament to timeless beauty when every single detail, every line, and every material blend to create an unprecedented experience of contemporary Italian living.

Molteni Furniture

Molteni furniture embodies an elegant equilibrium between tradition and innovation. The result is a collection that feels timeless yet unmistakably contemporary, defined by purity of lines, exquisite materials, and impeccable attention to detail.

One of the brand's most enduring icons, the 505 UP modular system, exemplifies Molteni's mastery of flexible design.With endless configurations, refined finishes, and integrated display or multimedia elements, it adapts harmoniously to the evolving demands of modern interiors. Its clean geometry and expressive modularity embody the essence of Molteni design: intelligent, balanced, and effortlessly elegant.

The Paul sofa by Vincent Van Duysen showcases the brand's ability to blend visual lightness with enveloping comfort. Defined by generous volumes resting on delicate, elongated bases, Paul offers a floating, sculptural aesthetic. Its subtle stitching, deep seating, and thoughtfully crafted proportions make it a natural centerpiece for sophisticated living rooms.

Another tribute to Molteni's memory is the D.154.2 armchair: with its custom upholstery and split-back structure in a distinctive form, the D.154.2 introduces mid-century elegance into today's spaces with absolute ease.

The Diamond table by Patricia Urquiola boasts a sculptural base in the dining area — a faceted, jewel-like structure that supports a refined marble or wood top. Interplays of solidity and delicacy give the piece an unmistakable architectural presence, elevating everyday rituals.

Closets and storage solutions reflect Molteni's longstanding expertise in modular systems. The Gliss Master wardrobe pairs technological innovation with meticulous craftsmanship. Soft-closing mechanisms, integrated lighting, glass doors, and sophisticated internal accessories transform wardrobe organization into an art form — functional, serene, and distinctly luxurious.

Every Molteni furniture piece carries the brand's core values: precision, quality, and design integrity. Whether shaping a living room, bedroom, dining room, or corporate interior, these creations reveal a consistent philosophy — beauty born of clarity and an enduring devotion to innovation.
