In the electrifying atmosphere that permeated these past few days of Milan Design Week 2025, Nexion made a powerful statement with its presence inside the Brera District, the historical and vibrant neighborhood of the city center, offering visitors an immersive experience built around a compelling concept: LOVE. LIVE. CREATE.

An exploration through design, emotion, and material

Inspired by this year’s Fuorisalone theme Mondi Connessi (which means “Connected Worlds” in Italian), Nexion’s installation invited architects, designers, and all-around creatives and enthusiasts to reflect on the power of design to foster meaningful connections, rooted in a passion for aesthetics, craftsmanship, well-being, and the transformative potential of creativity.

Each word in the concept, Love. Live. Create., represented a distinct dimension of the brand’s vision and served as a lens through which visitors could get a glimpse of Ombre, Nexion’s yet-to-be-launched collection of surfaces.

LOVE. At the heart of design

At the focus of Nexion’s space stood a suspended installation: a sculptural heart made by mirrored cubes. More than a visual centerpiece, it served as a powerful symbol of Nexion’s enduring passion for design and its deepening commitment to environmental responsibility and social impact.

The mirrored surfaces reflected both light and movement, creating an ever-shifting visual dialogue, an ode to the dynamic and interconnected world of contemporary design.

Visitors were invited to walk into the heart-shaped installation, discovering the Ombre surfaces showcased within, an exclusive preview for the visitors of Milan Design Week 2025.

This immersive motion offered a tactile and emotional encounter with the material: an invitation to explore the essence of matter and craftsmanship up close.

LIVE. Material that breathes life into space

Around the perimeter of the space, large vertical panels were arranged to evoke the appearance of architectural doors. This design choice created an intuitive bridge between the installation and real-world applications, positioning the materials not just as products but as living, breathing components of spatial design.

Here, visitors could visualize how Ombre surfaces might come to life in architectural contexts, resonating with authenticity and depth.

CREATE. The Art of Making

The exhibition’s third section shed light on the creative and development process behind the upcoming launch. A curated photographic series documented the process from raw clay to the refined surface, showcasing the intricate hand-pressing technique and material experimentation that define the Nexion Formula, a unique blend of innovation, research, quality and meticulous attention to detail that sets the brand apart from everything else in the industry.

This behind-the-scenes look not only highlighted the craftsmanship behind the collection but also underlined Nexion’s holistic approach to design, where technology, aesthetics, and tradition coalesce.

Extending the experience outdoors

Outside the main venue, at the intersection of Via Statuto and the near Via Lovanio, a second heart-shaped installation echoed the interior centerpiece.

Created using concrete tiles from the Terraelino collection, the structure revealed two distinct faces: one forming the Italian flag, and the other the Indian flag, a tribute to the twofold Italo-Indian heart of the company, a joint venture that powers the Nexion brand.

Complemented by seating elements clad in stone-look Lithic surfaces, the area became a space for rest and conversation: an outdoor extension of Nexion’s design ethos.

The most sincere Thank You for visiting us during the event

Participating in Milan Design Week is always a privilege, and this year’s edition was particularly memorable for us. Our space became a place of dialogue, discovery, and inspiration thanks to the incredible architects, designers, and enthusiasts who visited, explored, and shared in the experience.

With LOVE. LIVE. CREATE., we set out to tell a story of passion, research, and possibility. We are proud to have sparked conversations, encouraged new connections, and shown what’s possible when design stems from the heart and ends in excellence.

Thank you for being part of it. We look forward to seeing you all next year, with new stories to tell and new surfaces to explore together.
