Furnishing Idea is the portal dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, designed to bring together different professionals such as architects, designers, carpenters, furniture makers and manufacturers active in the furniture market who represent the reference point in terms of innovation and quality of the product offered. On the other hand, the portal aims to provide a valid information service focused on products, projects, events and fairs and everything that revolves around the world of components, semi-finished products and accessories for the furniture industry.

 

The portal is divided into different sections where you can explore the different products according to different categories, get in touch with manufacturers, download catalogues to keep up with industry trends and watch videos of interviews with the best professionals and manufacturers.

 

In the articles section you can find all the information about the most innovative product technologies, such as furniture materials, furniture accessories and systems, furniture machinery, furniture hardware, manufactured by manufacturers with a solid experience in the field. In the companies section there is an overview of the manufacturers registered on our portal, divided by product category, where you can contact us for any request. Our portal also has a special catalogues section to allow professionals and operators in the sector to view in a practical way all the catalogues relating to the various products (furniture hardware, upholstery materials, furniture paints, etc.). In addition, to allow easy consultation of the products, our portal has reserved a product section, organized by categories, where you can find out about the technical characteristics, materials and functionality of each product. The video section, on the other hand, presents numerous video interviews given by professionals and manufacturers that report news, insights and informative content on the best technologies in the sector.

 

In addition, to keep you constantly informed you can also consult our Journal section which contains all the Furnishing Idea magazines dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, such as the edition dedicated to Sicam or Interzum, two of the most important trade fairs in the sector.

From Poliform and Dekton® by Cosentino a new concept of personalized kitchen

Poliform, one of the most important realities of Made in Italy in the international furniture world, and Dekton®, the innovative ultra-compact surface of the Cosentino Group, have collaborated to create a new concept of personalized kitchen. The Poliform Alea Plus kitchen was presented as a world preview at the last edition of KBIS 2019 in Las Vegas, the event that for over 50 years has been offering product innovations, technologies and trends in the kitchen and bathroom sector.
Created in collaboration with the architect and designer Daniel Germani of the Daniel Germani Designs studio, the new kitchen project sees the doors and columns covered with Dekton® panels with an exceptional thickness of 4mm made exclusively for the occasion. This is the first example of application of Dekton® Slim, a highly technological material resulting from the constant commitment of the Cosentino Group's Research & Development Department.
The project highlights the great versatility of the Dekton® ultra-compact surface and Poliform's mastery in creating customized solutions.

 

Dekton® Sirius and Dekton® Chromica Cobalt to characterize the whole kitchen

For the kitchen cladding, the architect chose Dekton® Sirius, characterized by dark tones and a particular texture that matches perfectly with Canaletto walnut, while the worktops were covered with Dekton surfaces 2 cm thick which guarantee durability, resistance to temperature changes, UV rays, scratches and stains.
The island, over 9 meters long, has a structure formed by two main volumes joined by a single slab of Dekton Chromica Cobalt, a new color prototype that will soon be presented on the market. On the one hand, an integrated hob has been added that underlines the high resistance of the material to heat, on the other a service sink has been placed.
After the preview at KBIS, Dekton® Slim will be officially presented at the Milan Design Week from 9 to 14 April in the Cosentino City showroom in Piazza Fontana and in an installation located in Ventura Centrale.
