FENIX are the innovative materials created for interior design by Arpa Industriale in 2013. The FENIX family is now an open system that includes both surface materials and interior solutions. Created with proprietary technologies, FENIX makes you experience unique features. At first glance, the surfaces strike for their super–matt appearance. By touching them, you feel how pleasantly soft they are, with the further surprise of leaving no fingerprints. Thermal healing of superficial micro–scratches is also possible. Stories coming from different sides of the world are the inspiration behind FENIX timeless palette. Its surfaces are suitable for furnishing and interior fitting with vertical and horizontal applications.

FENIX and Formica present FAST / FORWARD, a project based on the synergy between the two brands and which stages a narrative that looks to the future while maintaining a connection with the past. Curated by Federica Sala, it continues a research journey that began in 2024. A voyage through time in which six international designers — Federica Biasi, Laurids Gallée, Thabisa Mjo, Tino Seubert, Panter&Tourron, and Uchronia — were invited to reinterpret a historical period, from 1920s to 2010s, through the creation of a contemporary furniture piece. The exhibition, accompanied by a graphic project and set–up designed by Parco Studio in collaboration with the MUSA team, revisits the materials across several decades.

Studio ByHAA is an architectural design studio working at the intersection of craft, design, regenerative architecture, and landscape. Designs are handcrafted in Egypt through a dialogue between local artisans and Danish designers. The studio works from the understanding that all things and scales are connected, linking architecture with craft, the intelligence of the land, and the people who shape it. Beginning with the land—its textures, rhythms, and hands—the practice brings the outside in, creating spaces and objects that belong. Through the handmade, Studio ByHAA seeks to reconnect people with nature, the land, and a slower sense of time.

Established in 2025, FIRPON's first endeavour is to bring the light back to the somewhat mythical Filosof Lamp, created by the notorious architect Lars-Erik Ejlers (1948–2024). Lars-Erik Ejlers carried the lamp with him wherever he went, from the bar at Hotel D’Angleterre to Holstein Bodega, turning Copenhagen’s nightlife into his personal showroom. To own a Filosof Lamp was to own a piece of a story, as it was often purchased directly from him during a late-night visit to a city bar, making it both rare and iconic. FRIPON now carries his vision forward, bringing the Filosof Lamp back to shine in modern spaces.
