Marta Ferri’s design template started on a made-to-measure basis, but she has been quietly expanding her repertoire ever since. Albeit somewhat elusive, the oft-coveted idea of effortless elegance is one she has mastered since the beginning, attributed to her winning trifecta that holds fabric, colour and versatility in high esteem. Her trademark is upholstered materials sourced from across Italy, which she favours for their size, weight and release from trends or seasonality. Due to this, her Milanese atelier – which she describes as “one big family” – buys only what it needs, and produces only what is ordered. Those seeking mid-century silhouettes with modern ease would find plenty to covet here, especially if teamed with an appreciation for Italian design, rare, vintage fabrics, and a unique sensitivity towards colour, be it a fiery magenta or an earthy olive.
