Top Italian Luxury Brands You Can Specify via TIB PLUS (2025 Guide)

Italian luxury furniture captivates with timeless elegance, intelligent engineering and materials that age beautifully. In 2025, Italy’s leading makers continue to set the pace for sophisticated living—at home and in hospitality—thanks to a rare blend of craft and innovation.

This guide focuses exclusively on brands represented by TIB PLUS in the UK & Ireland. You’ll find deeper context on why Italian design leads globally, expanded brand sections with practical spec notes, and room-by-room advice to help you deliver a cohesive scheme from entrance to terrace.

Why Italian Furniture Brands Lead in Global Luxury Design

Italy’s design culture functions as a living ecosystem: artisan workshops, industrial know-how, design schools and world-class fairs all feed each other. The result is furniture that looks effortless because the hard problems—proportion, joints, tolerances, finishes—are solved at source. Doors meet frames with quiet precision, hardware feels reassuring in the hand, and colour libraries remain consistent across categories, so kitchens, wardrobes and living systems speak the same language.

For architects and designers, this means fewer compromises on tricky geometry and services. Modularity is genuinely modular; infills, trims and internal accessories are engineered to resolve real sites, not just showrooms. And because many Italian collections share a coherent aesthetic across rooms, you can craft a narrative that feels designed, not decorated.

Longevity is another hallmark. Durable lacquers, responsibly sourced veneers, replaceable components and robust documentation (CAD blocks, technical sheets, maintenance guides) shorten the distance from concept to install—and keep spaces looking sharp for years.

Specifier tip: Beyond the hero images, interrogate the “touch points”: hinge quality, runners, soft-close behaviour, wall-fix details, cable management, and access for future maintenance. That’s where long-term value lives.

9 Luxury Italian Brands (Available via TIB PLUS) to Elevate 2025 Projects

Below are the brands you can source through TIB PLUS, with selection guidance, pairing ideas and spec notes for each.

Novamobili — Modular Systems for Day & Night

Novamobili excels at calm, architectural storage—living systems, bookshelves, sideboards, beds and wardrobes that unlock floor plans and tidy sightlines. The language is refined rather than shouty: proportion, rhythm and alignment lead the look.

  • Best for: Apartments, penthouses and family homes needing flexible storage and discreet media walls.
  • Strengths: Wardrobes (hinged/slide), bridge units, library systems, coordinated finishes across spaces.
  • Design vibe: Matt lacquers, nuanced timbers, slim metal elements, always quietly luxurious.

Specifier notes: Plan early around door swing vs sliders; confirm ceiling heights and services. Use corner modules and infills to make tight architecture feel intentional.

Pairs well with: Londonart for texture and depth, Italamp for mood layers, Made a Mano for statement tops.

LineaQuattro — Kitchens with Ergonomics & Precision

LineaQuattro makes kitchens that perform daily and photograph beautifully: crisp lines, ergonomic modules, disciplined shadow gaps and seamless appliance integration. Ideal when you want the kitchen to feel like part of the architecture rather than a bolt-on.

  • Best for: Design-led residences and multi-unit developments needing durability and finish consistency.
  • Strengths: Tall storage planning, internal organisation, appliance panelling, coherent colour/texture libraries.

Specifier notes: Align plinth heights, service voids and ventilation early. Match finishes with adjacent Novamobili joinery for a room-to-room narrative.

Pairs well with: Made a Mano lava stone islands and splashbacks; Italamp island pendants; FIAM shelves to keep the composition light.

Baxar — Contemporary Bathroom Furniture

Baxar offers vanities, tall units and mirrors with a modern, coordinated vocabulary. It’s a great choice when the bathroom should feel continuous with the main scheme rather than like a different project.

  • Best for: Primary and guest bathrooms in residential or boutique hospitality.
  • Strengths: Modular vanities, integrated basins, internal organisation, finish continuity.

Specifier notes: Confirm wall substrate and fixing centres; coordinate demisters, IP ratings and power points with M&E at concept stage.

Pairs well with: Italamp sconces for flattering vertical light; Made a Mano tops or niches; Londonart vinyl-backed wallcoverings (outside wet zones).

Italamp — Decorative Lighting with Glass Craft

Since 1975, Italamp has blended hand-worked glass with contemporary forms to create lighting that adds warmth, sparkle and presence. Use families of pendants, floor and table lights to scale the same language through a home or hotel.

  • Best for: Entrances, dining, bars and suites where ambience matters.
  • Strengths: Artisanal glass, broad typology coverage, finishes that complement metals and cabinetry.

Specifier notes: Layer decorative with architectural lighting—use Italamp for mood and identity; keep downlights for task and wayfinding. Check loads and canopy sizes for multi-drop pieces.

Pairs well with: FIAM mirrors to multiply sparkle; Novamobili systems for integrated scenes; Londonart to anchor colour stories.

FIAM — Curved Glass Icons

FIAM turns glass into sculpture: consoles, coffee tables, desks and mirrors that feel airy but assertive. Proprietary forming and silvering deliver museum-grade results with everyday durability.

  • Best for: Reception rooms, galleries, lobbies and light-starved spaces that benefit from reflection and transparency.
  • Strengths: Curved/tempered glass, technical mirrors, collaborations with leading designers.

Specifier notes: Treat mirrors as architecture—oversize to double perceived width or align long sightlines. For glazed tables, consider floor boxes for discreet power where glass exposes cable runs.

Pairs well with: Italamp for glow; Londonart behind glass for layered depth; Made a Mano stone for tactile contrast.

Londonart — Tailor-Made Wallcoverings

Londonart merges fashion sensibility with architectural rigour. From textured neutrals to bold murals, each design is produced to dimension so installations read “designed-in” rather than “stuck-on”.

  • Best for: Feature walls, headboards, corridors and petite powder rooms that need personality.
  • Strengths: Bespoke scaling/cropping, project advice, substrates for residential and light hospitality.

Specifier notes: Provide accurate elevations; confirm door/window positions for motif placement. Choose wipeable or vinyl substrates for high-traffic zones.

Pairs well with: Novamobili day systems, Italamp accent lighting, Baxar minimal bathrooms.

Cinquanta3 — Organised Storage & Systems

Cinquanta3 sits at the sweet spot of design and pragmatism: wardrobes, bookcases, home-office and guest-room solutions that maximise volume without visual noise. Ideal for value-critical areas that still deserve a crafted look.

  • Best for: BTR schemes, secondary bedrooms, utilities, home offices.
  • Strengths: Robust modules, rational internals, value-smart finishes.

Specifier notes: Use Cinquanta3 in back-of-house or cost-sensitive spaces, then elevate public areas with Novamobili, FIAM and Italamp to establish hierarchy.

Nidi — Children & Teen Spaces

Nidi creates ergonomic, durable rooms for children and teens—storage, desks, beds and accessories that evolve as needs change. The look is playful but disciplined, so it ties back to the main scheme.

  • Best for: Kids’ bedrooms, study nooks, teen suites.
  • Strengths: Flexible modules, rounded details, hard-wearing finishes and textiles.

Specifier notes: Plan generous pin-boards, cable management and task lighting for study zones; pick wipe-clean finishes for art/craft corners.

Made a Mano — Lava Stone & Terracotta Surfaces

Made a Mano brings couture tactility through hand-processed lava stone and terracotta. Glazes, patterns and textures add richness to kitchens, bathrooms, fireplaces and furniture tops.

  • Best for: Feature islands, vanity tops, splashbacks, hearths and outdoor pass tables (check finish suitability).
  • Strengths: Artisanal finishes, custom shapes, deep colour palettes.

Specifier notes: Confirm slip ratings where relevant; choose matte vs gloss by room orientation and light quality to control reflectance and maintenance.


How to Choose the Right Italian Brand for Your Project

Selection is equal parts aesthetics and logistics. Start with the story—what should the home or development say about the client or operator? Then assign roles to each maker so materials, lines and light “speak” coherently from entrance to terrace.

Assessing Your Personal (or Project) Style

If your palette is serene and architectural, anchor with Novamobili and LineaQuattro, then layer Italamp for warmth and FIAM for reflection. Want crafted tactility? Introduce Made a Mano at touch-points and Londonart for visual depth. For children’s areas, Nidi evolves layouts without breaking the scheme.

Quick exercise: Choose three adjectives (e.g., serene, tailored, luminous). As you review finishes, ask: does this move us closer to those adjectives?

Room-by-Room Selection

  • Entrance/Living: Novamobili wall system + FIAM mirror + Italamp pendant to set tone and frame sightlines.
  • Kitchen/Dining: LineaQuattro cabinetry + Made a Mano island/splash + Italamp statement over the island.
  • Bedrooms: Novamobili wardrobe + Londonart headboard wall + quiet bedside lighting.
  • Bathrooms: Baxar vanity + Italamp sconces + Made a Mano top (finish permitting).
  • Kids/Study: Nidi desk and storage with edited colours to tie back to the main scheme.
  • Utility/Back-of-house: Cinquanta3 for robust, tidy storage that still looks designed.

Budgeting & Investment

Invest where touch, durability and visual hierarchy coincide: wardrobes (daily use), kitchen fronts/worktops (performance + presence), and lighting (mood + identity). Use value-smart systems (e.g., Cinquanta3) in complementary finishes to maintain coherence without inflating cost.

Customisation, Durability & Maintenance

Most brands here offer strong made-to-measure options—sizes, finishes, internals. Confirm cleaning and care for glass, lacquer and stone early to align with household routines or hospitality/BTR standards.

Leverage Trade Access & Expert Support

TIB PLUS coordinates sampling, finish schedules, training, quotations and after-sales across these makers—one point of contact to protect design intent and keep timelines honest.

Trends Shaping Italian Luxury in 2025

Sustainability with Longevity

Durability is sustainability. Expect tougher finishes, responsible sourcing and replaceable components. Designers are choosing fewer, better pieces with simpler maintenance and longer lifecycles.

Modularity, Adaptability, Life-Stage Design

Systems that reconfigure—home offices concealed in living walls, wardrobes accepting new internals, kitchen islands that shift from prep to entertaining—are the new baseline.

Expressive Surfaces & Light

Artisanal surfaces (lava stone glazes, textured panels, large-scale murals) and warmer, layered lighting make homes feel intentionally curated over time rather than installed in one go.

Putting It Together: One-Home Example

Brief: Light-filled London apartment; serene, tailored, luminous. Scheme: Novamobili wall system with concealed desk; LineaQuattro kitchen in matt neutral with a Made a Mano glazed island slab; Italamp linear over dining and soft hall sconces; FIAM hero mirror opposite terrace doors to bounce light; Londonart mural behind the bed; Baxar slim vanity; Nidi study wall in a muted palette; Cinquanta3 utility storage. The result is cohesive, grown-up and distinctly Italian—without a single loud gesture.
