Made in Italy. Lived here.
The best of Italian design, curated for the way Southern African homes are lived in.
Every space tells a different story. The furniture should too.
Our brands
Exclusive to Maldini
Each brings a distinct point of view to contemporary Italian design. Together, they form a collection curated for different spaces, personalities and ways of living.
From the edit
Featured pieces from our current Edit.
Solid Canaletta walnut. Cast glass. It turns an often forgotten passage wall into a beautifully considered moment.
Part sculpture, part lighting object. Designed to be as much a conversation piece as a source of light.
Diamond-quilted leather on solid wood. The same chair that hosts a long dinner and often ends up being used for emails the next morning. Arcadia balances refined detailing with lasting comfort.
Why we edit
Most people don’t buy signature furniture pieces very often. Which is why every decision matters.
Importing Italian furniture isn’t the hard part. Curating what belongs in a Southern African home is. Since 2001, we’ve travelled to Italy to build relationships with some of the country’s leading furniture houses, selecting pieces that suit our architecture, our natural light, and the way we gather, host, work and live.
Every collection on this website, and in our showroom, has been chosen with intention. Because good design is about how it lives, not only where it was made.
The journal
Inspiration, ideas, observations and projects exploring how Italian design lives in Southern Africa.
THE JOURNAL
Why low beds change a room
Lower the bed and the room feels different the moment you walk in.
It’s not about how it looks on our showroom floor. It’s about how it lives in your home every day. The backdrop to pets, kids, wine spills, and the beautiful chaos of everyday life.

Every great room starts with a conversation
of how you’ll use the space. Whether you’re furnishing one room or an entire home, our Curators are here to help you explore what belongs in your space.
Those conversations happen in our Kramerville showroom, over the phone, on WhatsApp or via Zoom.
