From April 8 to 13, Milan once again became the world’s design capital, hosting the much-anticipated Salone del Mobile 2025 and the dynamic constellation of events known as the Fuorisalone Milano 2025. Amid this unparalleled celebration of creativity, craftsmanship and innovation, Riva Mobili D’Arte stood out as an emblem of timeless elegance and Italian savoir-faire in both events (you can read more about the brand’s contribution to Città Paradiso at our dedicated analysis).
In a season marked by experimentation and cross-disciplinary dialogue, the brand reaffirmed its identity through a powerful new chapter: unveiling the Belvedere Collection, a pioneering interpretation of classic indoor and outdoor living. Presented in a luminous greenhouse installation, the collection offered a poetic tribute to Lake Como and a bold expansion of what heritage design can be.
A testament to the enduring relevance of heritage design, Riva Mobili D’Arte’s presence at the Italy furniture exhibition 2025 affirmed that tradition and innovation are complementary forces, each enriching the other with meaning, elegance and timeless appeal.
A new chapter at the Italy furniture exhibition 2025
The Salone del Mobile, surely Italy’s most famous furniture exhibition, confirmed its central role as the global stage where design excellence and manufacturing artistry converge. For the world of classic furniture, often rooted in heritage yet constantly challenged by the demands of modern living, the exhibition represented a renewed space for dialogue: between the permanence of tradition and the urgency of innovation.
Riva Mobili D’Arte emerged as a key voice in this refined experimentation landscape. With its unwavering commitment to authenticity, craftsmanship and cultural continuity, the brand offered an alternative to fleeting trends: a vision of design that honors its past while imagining new ways to inhabit space.
At a time when the boundaries between aesthetics, sustainability and functionality are constantly being redefined, Riva Mobili D’Arte thus reaffirmed the timeless relevance of Italian artisanal heritage. Its presence at the prestigious furniture exhibition 2025 was a celebration of beauty and a declaration of intent: to continue shaping a world where the language of form, material and memory evolves with grace and purpose.
Introducing Belvedere: Riva Mobili D’Arte’s new classic indoor & outdoor collection
Among the most talked-about revelations of the Salone del Mobile 2025, the debut of Riva Mobili D’Arte’s Belvedere Collection marked a turning point in the world of luxury furnishings. For the first time, the timeless language of classic design, rooted in heritage, balance and artisanal excellence, was brought into the open air with a collection that redefines what it means to live elegantly both inside and outside.
Inspired by the serene beauty of Lake Como, Belvedere captures the essence of a landscape where nature, history and architecture coexist in perfect harmony. The collection pays homage to this setting through soft ivory finishes, refined green fabrics and intricate detailing that recall the interplay of water, garden and stone. Every element is carefully orchestrated to evoke a sense of serenity and understated luxury.
Crafted with the same dedication to excellence that typically defines all the brand’s creations, the pieces in the Belvedere Collection feature exquisite woodwork, Viennese straw elements in its outdoor furnishing pieces and outdoor-grade textiles designed to withstand the elements without compromising on elegance. Carvings are precise yet gentle, materials are rich yet balanced and each choice serves that delicate equilibrium between tradition and innovation.
In an industry where outdoor furniture often leans toward the contemporary, Belvedere is a sector-defining innovation: a classic collection conceived for the outdoors without renouncing the codes of timeless Italian beauty. It offers a new product line and a new way of imagining the garden, the terrace and the veranda as extensions of the cultured interior, touched by history and open to the sky.
The greenhouse installation: a setting of light and elegance
To unveil the Belvedere Collection, Riva Mobili D’Arte chose an immersive greenhouse installation: a luminous, ethereal space where architecture, nature and craftsmanship could engage in quiet conversation. Bathed in natural light and filled with the scent of greenery, the greenhouse offered an atmosphere of serenity that mirrored the collection’s soul.
Within this scenographic setting, the ivory finishes and green-accented fabrics of the Belvedere pieces radiated with extraordinary clarity. The soft reflections of glass and sunlight elevated every carved detail, while the color palette – borrowed from Lake Como’s landscape – came alive in a space that blurred the boundaries between interior sophistication and outdoor ease.
The greenhouse was a symbolic expression of Riva Mobili D’Arte’s values. As a structure that shelters growth and nurtures transformation, it became a metaphor for the brand’s philosophy: preserving the roots of classical beauty while opening new paths toward innovation. Every visitor who stepped inside was invited to experience not just furniture but a lifestyle, a vision where elegance and nature coexist.
During the Salone del Mobile 2025, the installation quickly became a highlight for press, architects and design lovers alike. Its calming presence stood in contrast to the high-energy buzz of the fairgrounds, offering a moment of reflection and wonder. Critics praised the poetic coherence of the setting while guests lingered within the space, absorbed in its quiet luxury and sensorial richness.
Beyond Belvedere: revisiting timeless icons at Salone del Mobile 2025
While the debut of the Belvedere Collection was undoubtedly the centerpiece of Riva Mobili D’Arte’s presentation at the Salone del Mobile 2025, the exhibition also offered a moment to reconnect with two of the brand’s most evocative collections: Comacina and Giardino Italiano. Shown alongside the new outdoor pieces, they created a visual and conceptual dialogue that traced the evolution of classic design across interior and exterior spaces.
The Comacina Collection reflects Riva Mobili D’Arte’s enduring commitment to interpreting classic luxury through contemporary sensibilities. Born from a creative process that begins with a dream and takes shape through sketch and craftsmanship, Comacina blends precious inlays, sophisticated fabrics and innovative forms to meet the demands of a refined international clientele. Its presence at the exhibition reaffirmed how tradition, when approached with imagination and skill, can yield both rooted and forward-looking results.
Equally resonant was the return of Giardino Italiano, a collection born from a profound reflection on the relationship between furniture, nature and the passing of time. With its sloping silhouettes, graceful vertical arches and a vocabulary of elegant restraint, Giardino Italiano offers a vision of classic design that is quietly poetic: an ideal fit for interiors that open out onto natural surroundings. Its understated luxury speaks to a lifestyle where simplicity is elevated to art.
Together, these three collections – Belvedere, Comacina and Giardino Italiano – outlined a coherent and evolving narrative where the classical language of form, balance and beauty remains intact yet is constantly reinterpreted for a world that seeks depth, emotion and meaning in every detail.
Design, emotion, identity: the legacy of Riva Mobili D’Arte
For Riva Mobili D’Arte, beauty is a timeless value, an enduring expression of culture, memory and human emotion. Each collection, from the richly sculpted pieces of Comacina to the serene landscapes evoked by Belvedere, reflects the brand’s dedication to a design language that transcends fashion and speaks directly to the senses.
This ability to evolve while staying true to its roots defines Riva Mobili D’Arte’s legacy. Anchored in Italian artisanal heritage, the brand continues to explore new materials, forms and contexts without compromising its identity’s integrity. Here, innovation is not rupture but refinement; the patient work of translating age-old techniques into new expressions of elegance and meaning.
At a time when design is increasingly driven by speed and spectacle, Riva Mobili D’Arte offers an alternative: a slower, richer, more emotional approach: one where each object is not only functional or beautiful but also deeply personal, capable of telling stories, evoking memories and shaping spaces where life unfolds gracefully.
Looking ahead, Riva Mobili D’Arte will continue to craft pieces that bridge past and future, indoor and outdoor, craftsmanship and creativity. With every new collection, the brand reaffirms its mission: to create exceptional environments infused with the soul of tradition and the vision of tomorrow.
