Paola Lenti “Ritrovarsi”
During Milano Design Week 2025 we attended “Ritrovarsi,” an event held by Paola Lenti.
The venue was the flagship store “Paola Lenti Milano,” located in the Dergano district just north of central Milan, and it took full advantage of the brand’s identity as an outdoor-furniture label with its generous, relaxed spatial layout. In contrast to central Milan, where rebuilding is not permitted, this area is undergoing active redevelopment — much like “Kuramae” in Tokyo.
Paola Lenti is a furniture brand founded in Milan, Italy in 1994. Its female founder, Paola Lenti, started her career as a graphic designer. She began by developing the yarns used in rugs, and after launching a highly durable outdoor collection, the brand rapidly established itself worldwide as a luxury name.
The brand draws its inspiration from nature, characterised by designs that incorporate the varied colours of earth, sea, sky, plants, and animals. It also places emphasis on environmental responsibility, producing its pieces in a sustainable manner.
There was also a zone dedicated to the Belgian ceramics brand “Atelier Vierkant.”
