Furnishing Idea is the portal dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, designed to bring together different professionals such as architects, designers, carpenters, furniture makers and manufacturers active in the furniture market who represent the reference point in terms of innovation and quality of the product offered. On the other hand, the portal aims to provide a valid information service focused on products, projects, events and fairs and everything that revolves around the world of components, semi-finished products and accessories for the furniture industry.

 

The portal is divided into different sections where you can explore the different products according to different categories, get in touch with manufacturers, download catalogues to keep up with industry trends and watch videos of interviews with the best professionals and manufacturers.

 

In the articles section you can find all the information about the most innovative product technologies, such as furniture materials, furniture accessories and systems, furniture machinery, furniture hardware, manufactured by manufacturers with a solid experience in the field. In the companies section there is an overview of the manufacturers registered on our portal, divided by product category, where you can contact us for any request. Our portal also has a special catalogues section to allow professionals and operators in the sector to view in a practical way all the catalogues relating to the various products (furniture hardware, upholstery materials, furniture paints, etc.). In addition, to allow easy consultation of the products, our portal has reserved a product section, organized by categories, where you can find out about the technical characteristics, materials and functionality of each product. The video section, on the other hand, presents numerous video interviews given by professionals and manufacturers that report news, insights and informative content on the best technologies in the sector.

 

In addition, to keep you constantly informed you can also consult our Journal section which contains all the Furnishing Idea magazines dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, such as the edition dedicated to Sicam or Interzum, two of the most important trade fairs in the sector. The magazines can be consulted from the portal or easily downloadable in pdf format.

 

Thanks to the trust placed in us by many manufacturers, our portal is now recognized both nationally and internationally.

Hettich's FurnSpin wins Red Dot Design Award 2024

FurnSpin, the innovative high-end hardware system from Hettich, wins another important award: after winning “Best of the Best” at the interzum award 2023, it also wins the Red Dot Design Award 2024 for the “Innovative Products” category. 

The jury of the renowned international award explained the reasons that convinced it to award Hettich's FurnSpin with the Red Dot Winner Label: “Among the many proposals submitted by companies and design studios from all over the world, our international jury was won over by the excellent quality and creativity of the product.

 

A product with a strong distinctive character

FurnSpin appeals because it breaks free from old design patterns and makes room for creativity in furniture design. Open doors and flaps are no longer in the way because with FurnSpin it is the main part of the furniture that moves, extremely easily. Thanks to the special rotational and translational movement, the inside of the furniture can be fully rotated outward.

With an elegant rotation, the cabinet reveals its contents, and with another rotation, the interior disappears to make way for the closed front. The torque is so counterbalanced that even very light objects do not tip or slide, but remain in place inside the cabinet. 

FurnSpin thus makes it possible to reinvent the concept of space and furniture, with original performance and a design quality that stands out from standard products.

 

An extremely versatile system

FurnSpin is an extremely versatile system, perfect in any environment from kitchen to bathroom, bedroom to living room or office. Available in different sizes, to be chosen based on the size of the cabinet, FurnSpin also offers all the comfort features such as soft-close or push-to-open system for handle-less furniture. The hardware remains almost completely hidden to satisfy even the most demanding designers, manufacturers, and customers.
