During Milano Design Week 2026, designer Leonardo Talarico presented Minima, a site-specific exhibition hosted at Superstudio Maxi—an exploration of essentiality, balance, and visual lightness translated into a refined spatial narrative.
Conceived as a three-dimensional composition rather than a traditional exhibition, Minima unfolds as a suspended scenography where volumes, lines, and surfaces interact in a calibrated equilibrium between presence and absence. The installation invites observation rather than interaction, offering a contemplative experience in which each element finds its precise place within a harmonious whole.
Within this context, Talarico brought together a selection of pieces designed for leading international brands, including the Grafism coffee table from the Trussardi Casa collection—an object that naturally resonates with the exhibition’s visual and conceptual language.
Defined by a bold yet balanced aesthetic, Grafism translates a graphic intuition into a sculptural presence. Its design is articulated through an interplay of seemingly suspended volumes, where transparency and solidity engage in a continuous dialogue. The extra-clear thermoformed hammered glass top captures and refracts light through a vibrant, textured surface, enhancing the perception of movement and depth.
The base, grounded yet visually light, can be customized in grey Travertine or Black Marquina marble, expressing two distinct material identities—one marked by natural irregularities, the other by a deep, refined intensity. This contrast reinforces the table’s dual nature, where craftsmanship and technology converge in a cohesive design statement.
Almost a functional sculpture, Grafism embodies the Trussardi Casa approach to design: an understated yet distinctive presence, where materiality, form, and proportion are orchestrated with precision. Within Minima, the piece becomes part of a broader visual dialogue—an exploration of balance and essentiality that reflects the values of the Trussardi Gentle Society and its vision of contemporary living.
