Salone 2026 Pedrali
The 62nd edition of Salone took place in April again, this year we had 2 brands Present at the Trade show with Pedrali and RS Barcelona. See our separate post for RS Barcelona news.
Many news things to see at Pedrali - again pushing the boundaries with the material and color use. Visting a Pedrali stand gives great inspiration of what trend colors will be in the next year.
This years trends we picked up
More colors on furniture fabric than in previous years. Walls, floors and decoration had more natural colors
Specifically in contract furniture we saw more prints and motives on fabrics
One color that stood out was Green, anything from pistachio to moss and olive green
Supergloss paints in bold colors on table tops surfaces
Macaron edges, chunky cookie like, on table tops
THE GREENS
Nuovo Guinea: this is one of those products that stood out for us. With a new technique of weaving the polypropylene belts, it creates a beautiful pattern in trio or mixed colours. Quick drying and meant for outdoor use, but even indoors it gives a happy appearance. The fabrics can be unzipped for washing or replacing with ease.
Ikon Twist: an addition to the popular and price conscious Ikon family is now available with a 25mm polypropylene rope twisted around. For in- and outdoor use, choose from 4 different rope colours. Max size dia 1590mm. Now you can match the ropes colors with the Panarea chairs for a complete mediterranean feel.
Estratto: the Concave aluminium sheets glide into one and another creating the table structure. Supergloss finished, delivered as flatpack.
Fibra: A luxurious summer loungers with a 100mm thick dryfoam cushioning. The frame is of aluminium that lasts a lifetime combined with teak details for the feet and wheels. Together with a small coffee table. Time to take a nap!
THE BLUES
Opale: the baby blue pastel we saw earlier on Estratto coffee table. More playfully mixed with American walnut on the legs of the chair. Also available without armrests and as barstool. Pictured with Frank table in retro brown with supergloss finish creating a great contrast with the boucle fabric.
Anemos: the supergloss colours we see more on surfaces than before he in a new blue. Pictured with Griante chairs.
Estratto: a diverse table series from extruded alu profiled sheets that built robust tables and console tables.
Fibra: plush is what comes to mind, with a touch of retro with the piping on the cushion. Double the fun with a 2-person sun lounger.
Libre or freedom - is the new polypropylen monoblock outdoor chair. The technology has developed further enabling more curves, resulting in a more elegant structure. Here piping meets with flat surfaces. From a distance it looks like a metal chair, thus with the benefit of plastic, being more comfortable to sit on and with a friendlier price tag.
