Over at the Moroso stand was Tord Boontje’s Meadow upholstered seating collection, which sports images from the woodlands on island-like seats with legs of acrylic or wooden spheres. Edward Van Vliet’s Ikebana sofa sported fabric he designed, printed with photos of nature that are bursting with life and detail, thanks to the blend of linen and viscose in the fabrics. The digital prints capture all the details of the photographic images perfectly.

Driade Lab offered up fresh spring blooms on its Ziqqurat cabinets and Zigazig irregular-shape coffee tables, courtesy of digital printing on bi-laminate surfaces.

One of the most Instagrammed images of design week must be Marc Ange’s Le Refuge daybed for design website The Invisible Collection, installed within the Mediateca di Santa Teresa in the heart of Milan.

Available in both indoor and outdoor finishes (and in this year’s hottest hues of green and pink), Ange says the design is a projection of a childhood memory, that of an imaginary jungle growing indoors, which shelters and provides comfort and peace.
