MDF Italia creates and produces designer items and modern furniture in the pursuit of excellence. They embody a quest for the essential and ensure that each space — domestic, work or hospitality — becomes unique.

For MDF Italia, design is about shaping matter with ideas. More than simple products, the results of this process are thought forms. Our vocation has always been to create objects that not only become icons but will also succeed in defining the canon of contemporary design.

We believe that design must reflect the surrounding context and the complexities of today’s world. From the outset in 1992, together with our designers and craftspeople, we have placed this idea at the forefront of our work. A number of distinctive features have made us both unique and identifiable: formal simplicity, volumetric lightness, long-lasting design and innovative use of materials.

We have taken up the challenge of bringing together contrasting forces: minimalism and emotion, synthesis and narrative, function and wonder. We are pioneers in finding new ways of envisaging space.

Our philosophy is inspired by simplicity. Everything we do is the fruit of a dialectic eliminating all traces of the superfluous in order to encapsulate, in a single gesture, the maximum meaning.

Every decision we take is dictated by the desire to push ourselves to the limit and beyond what is considered possible, to challenge the standards of the market and society as a whole. This approach gives rise to ideas, products and solutions that cannot be easily categorized and stimulate debate in contemporary design.

Synthesis is part of our design method, a work of continuous subtraction: of materials, elements, thought. The resulting creations are characterized by lightness of form and compositional harmony.

We believe in the necessity of evolving in a harmonious and controlled way. This is reflected in a dynamic sign, which tends towards a compositional balance and the creation of aesthetic and design canons destined to be replicated over time.

Design must not limit itself to decoration or problem solving, but rather produce a reaction of wonder in the beholder. That’s why we conceive and realize products that exceed expectations and amaze our clients.

We safeguard and value the intrinsic quality of every space through design. Even when the design challenges are hard, the end result looks simple. When you make smart, usable pieces of furniture you don’t need flamboyant gestures. Beauty comes naturally.
