Every prodigy has an origin story. At Milan Design Week 2025, Natuzzi Italia unveiled its ‘Rooted in Harmony’ exhibition: a collection that pays homage to the brand’s Apulian heritage, a region known for its centuries-old architecture, clear blue-green waters, and rugged stone hills. The centrepiece of the collection, ‘Radice’, is an ode to the harmony between heritage and contemporary design.

Scape met with Pasquale Junior Natuzzi for an exclusive conversation on authenticity and staying rooted. Later, South African designers from Ohkre Collective joined the conversation.
