MAGIS AND THE SUSTAINABILITY GROUP

Since 2022, Magis has been part of the Sustainability Group of Confindustria Veneto Est, a group that brings together companies from different sectors that, thanks to regular meetings and site visits, discuss sustainability with the common purpose of pursuing the goals of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

The group’s main aim is to bring to light the best practices of local companies that are concrete examples of how to develop a business in a sustainable way, reducing the impact on the planet and promoting the economic and social well-being of the community.

Last week it was our turn and we had the pleasure of hosting in Magis the representatives of some important companies from Veneto that are part of the Group. 

After a presentation of the company, our goals and the good practices we are activating for the planet and society, we presented some significant products. The aim was to demonstrate that even design furniture, if well conceived and developed, can help reduce its environmental impact. Examples were the Bell Chair, the Costume modular sofa, the Alpina chair and the RE Air-Chair.

The meeting concluded with a visit to our showroom and a constructive discussion on sustainability issues.

CELEBRATING GOOD DESIGN

Magis is happy to share that some products from our collection have recently received prestigious achievements.

Each year, the Permanent Observatory of Design ADI publishes the ADI Design Index, which brings together the design projects eligible to compete for the next ADI Compasso d’Oro Award. We are honoured to share that our Trave chair and South collection have been selected for publication in the ADI Design Index 2024 and will thus be competing for the ADI Compasso d’Oro Award 2026.

We are also proud to share that our Twain low chair was prized with the 2024 Archiproducts Design Award in the Furniture category. The Archiproducts Design Awards acknowledge the originality, research and innovation of designs, emphasizing the emotional and functional power of projects. Particularly, they reward products that revolutionize and improve life quality through new materials, shapes or functions.

Coves now available

Available in three versions and with three colours to choose from (sage, aubergine and terracotta), the Coves mirrors are manufactured by combining the industrial technique of extrusion with the tradition of ceramics artisans.

Guglielmo Poletti drew inspiration from the world of architecture, reinterpreting the cove profile – an element used to form elegant junctions between ceilings and walls – and obtaining a collection characterised by a rigorous yet sinuous aesthetic.

By sequentially reversing the profiles of the frame, a project was born that cleverly incorporates both the mirrors and the shelf in a single object.

Costume awarded the ADI Compasso d’Oro

We are proud to announce that Costume was awarded the Compasso d’Oro ADI, the most prestigious prize in the design field.

We are honoured to have received this recognition, which comes as the sixth Compasso d’Oro ADI in the Magis history.
