The unmistakable style of Patricia Urquiola is best seen at Moroso, for example with the Mathilda chair, Mafalda armchair and the Gentry sofa.
Choose lights with understated shapes to create the timeless elegant look, such as the Sliced Sphere suspension light from Frederik Roije, the Air table light from LZF and the Standard pendant light from Menu.
Sleek accessories such as the Slide serving tray from Finell, the Bellows tote bag from Nava and the Clubmaster Chrono watch from Briston are perfect matches for the Il Sereno style.
