Gervasoni returns to the Salone del Mobile.Milano 2026 with Shades of Light, a project by Concetta Giannangeli that explores the relationship between matter and light as a generative element of space. Chiaroscuro and reflections shape surfaces and volumes, transforming the perception of environments.
In this context, the new indoor collections find a natural home: upholstered systems, tables, seating, and sideboards follow a coherent path in which the construction of the object remains central. The design exploration spans materials and proportions, weaving together contributions by Paola Navone, Roberto Lazzeroni, and Federica Biasi, alongside the ready-made projects by Concetta Giannangeli and the reissue of Vico Magistretti’s armchair.
The new products presented shape Gervasoni’s new indoor catalogue, in which new projects and iconic collections coexist within a unified vision defined by essentiality, materiality, and balanced proportions.
Loll, dining armchairs
Design by Paola Navone
With its simple, soft geometry, the Loll collection brings the language developed for the living room to the dining area. Designed by Paola Navone, the Loll 223, 224, 225, and 226 armchairs delineate a coherent, convivial space, where each element seems to spring from the next. The 223 and 224 versions – with and without armrests – stand out for their compact, enveloping silhouette, fully upholstered, where seat, legs, and backrest merge in a single, seamless gesture. The slightly curved backrest naturally accompanies the body, while the removable cover emphasizes its clean lines. With the 225 and 226 models, the project opens up to larger, more welcoming volumes.
Loll, modular sofa
Design by Paola Navone
In the living area, Loll evolves through new modular system configurations, designed to adapt seamlessly to different contexts. The modular elements, which can be combined, allow for flexible compositions while maintaining a strong coherence in the overall design.
The tailored “cut-and-sew” detail precisely follows the profile of the seat, while the solid wood frame, with a polyurethane foam shell, accommodates channeled goose down cushions. The inclusion of pocket springs introduces a more controlled quality of comfort, perceptible in everyday life: a balance between softness and support that accompanies the act of sitting.
Club, dining table anche chair
Design by Roberto Lazzeroni
Roberto Lazzeroni signs Club: a system of tables and chairs designed for the dining area, where memory and lightness coexist in balance. The tables recall the organic forms of Jean Royère, with tops featuring unusual geometric shapes and slightly recessed profiles that soften their silhouette. The solid ash legs, with a full and rounded section, support the top with a solid presence, while the curved crosspieces complement the design, creating continuity between the elements. The seats, on the other hand, are characterized by a meeting of fluid and continuous forms. The wooden frame defines the legs and armrests, designed to create a single line that bends and returns to itself. In the version with armrests, this trend becomes even more evident: the wooden element rises, curves, and continues seamlessly, shaping an enveloping figure.
Club, modular sofas and fixed compositions
Design by Roberto Lazzeroni
The Club sofa, designed by Roberto Lazzeroni, tells a story of elegance and structural continuity. The seat, characterized by a soft and slightly undulating line, is enveloped by the backrest and adjacent armrests, creating a welcoming and comfortable space for relaxation and conviviality. The elements are designed to adapt to different configurations, alternating fixed and modular solutions that allow the sofa to expand or contract naturally. On the floor, the cylindrical feet in stained solid ash support the sofa and slightly elevate it. A clean design, with a simple geometry, interacts with the softness of the upholstery without interrupting its continuity. The internal structure of plywood and fir, combined with the polyurethane foam padding, is calibrated to ensure support and depth, while the completely removable upholstery is suitable for everyday use.
R 513, armchair
Design by Vico Magistretti
The R 513 armchair, an original design by Vico Magistretti for Gervasoni in the 1980s, returns to production thanks to the collaboration with the Fondazione Vico Magistretti. Crafted in Manau rattan, the armchair is defined by a dense sequence of vertical elements that shape the backrest and outline its volume. Rattan, with its naturally flexible character, follows the design without stiffening it, resulting in a form that emerges directly from the construction process. Form and technique become one, faithfully expressing the precision of the original design intent.
Jorn, table
Design by Federica Biasi
Designed by Federica Biasi, the Jorn table moves between formal contrasts and material continuity. The thin top, tapered along the perimeter, rests delicately on the base, the true protagonist of the design. The ash legs tilt upward with a controlled twist, rotating slightly on themselves. This movement introduces a shift in verticality and makes the structure dynamic, while maintaining a measured balance, echoing the compositional rigor of the 1930s. Wood pervades the entire design, creating a living material, where the grain emerges with the light and introduces subtle variations.
Tapies, sideboard and cabinet
Design ready made by Concetta Giannangeli
With Tapies, Concetta Giannangeli shifts the focus to the surface, with a system of sideboards – available in low and high configurations – that focus on the theme of material exploration. The MDF structure, finished in painted spatula concrete, is punctuated by subtle vertical incisions, marking the rhythm with continuity and rigor. On the floor, the base introduces a distinctive feature. The feet disappear, making way for a trapezoidal element that extends the volume to the floor, maintaining the fluidity of the design without interruptions. The overall effect is balanced by precise details: tempered glass shelves and handles add a lighter touch, creating a subtle contrast with the dense surface.
Santé, chair
Design ready made by Concetta Giannangeli
Santé, a ready-made project by Concetta Giannangeli, explores the bistro chair archetype and reinterprets it in a contemporary key using curved rattan. The structure develops seamlessly: the legs merge with the seat and rise toward the backrest, defining a single, continuous line. A sequence of vertical arches, repeated with a regular rhythm, runs across the backrest, while the lower elements meet through a connecting joint – also arched – that softens the transition and guides the eye.
Medley, coffee tables and lamp
Design ready made by Concetta Giannangeli
From careful research into metal and its relationship with light comes Medley, a readymade project by Concetta Giannangeli that brings together coffee tables and lamps in a single family. The small tables appear as compact volumes, almost carved out of the material, with textured and etched surfaces. In the first version, the volume is defined by a solid top supported by vertical elements, slightly tapered and not perfectly regular, as if modeled directly from the material. In the second version, two square volumes overlap in a staggered fashion, generating a difference in level that creates support surfaces at different heights and introduces a more dynamic reading of the whole. The conical and low-slung pendant lamps are made of woven steel wire with a galvanic treatment. The structure is constructed through a radial weave that widens towards the bottom, defining a broad and light form.
Loll 07, 08, 09 - Limited Edition fabrics
The Loll family of seats – the 09 armchair, the 07 small armchair, and the 08 ottoman, designed by Paola Navone – are enriched with a selection of new limited-edition fabrics, in a project designed to evolve over time. An evolving wardrobe, capable of reinterpreting the same shape every year, changing its appearance.
As in fashion, each launch introduces a different interpretation. Surfaces don't just decorate, they transform: they impact volume, modulate light, redefine presence in space. The form remains, but the way it's told changes.
Angora White, with its long pile, creates a dense, three-dimensional texture that amplifies volume and captures light, lending a more pronounced presence. Fleece Fard, warm and enveloping, recalls fine wools and lightweight fibers, absorbs light and creates a more compact shape. Toile de Jouy Blue works through design: the jacquard weave and figurative motif define a more graphic interpretation, balancing construction and decoration.
Completing the story, the introduction of new water-based stains, recently presented in the Gray catalog, marks an evolution in Gervasoni's approach to surface treatment: not a covering finish, but rather a process that complements the material, allowing the wood's structure and natural variations to emerge. The new water-based stains are the result of research focused on aesthetic quality and sustainable production processes, creating a more authentic perception of surfaces. The new colors – Charcoal, Sepia, Burgundy, Maple, and Willow, along with lighter shades like Larch, Ashbark, Skybark, Birch, and Chalkwood – define a comprehensive range in which each finish maintains the material's texture, without homogenizing it.
The new finishes cross the various collections, helping to build visual continuity and strengthening the dialogue between light, material and design.
