GreenForest at Orgatec 2024: a showcase of innovation in office furniture design

GreenForest recently exhibited at the prestigious Orgatec 2024 fair. Known as one of Europe's leading events for office furniture and workplace facilities, Orgatec provided the ideal platform for GreenForest to unveil its latest collection, born from a fruitful collaboration with renowned Italian designer Roberto Semprini. This showcase marked a significant milestone, reflecting GreenForest's commitment to pushing the boundaries of workspace design.

Roberto Semprini – Blending Art and Functionality in Design
Italian architect, designer, and professor Roberto Semprini brought over three decades of expertise to the GreenForest collection displayed at Orgatec. Known for his artistic approach to furniture design, Semprini's career has been defined by his ability to merge functionality with creative expression. He began his journey in Florence, initially making waves in 1987 through his involvement with the avant-garde design group "Bolidismo," a movement that influenced his distinctive, open-minded approach. Semprini's work breaks free from the confines of conventional design, using furniture as an art form that embodies fluidity, emotion, and aesthetic innovation.

Semprini's signature style combines architectural rigor with the expressive qualities of contemporary art. Every piece he creates bears his unique hallmark—a testament to his commitment to reshaping how people experience and interact with furniture. One of his most iconic pieces, the Tatlin sofa, produced by Edra, exemplifies his unconventional approach. Inspired by Vladimir Tatlin's 1920 tower design, this spiral-shaped sofa became an iconic symbol of the 1990s and even appeared in Madonna's Drowned World Tour in 2001, showcasing Semprini's ability to blend functionality with bold, symbolic statements.

Piet Mondrian's Influence on the GreenForest Office 21 Collection
For the GreenForest Office 21 collection showcased at Orgatec, Semprini drew inspiration from Dutch painter Piet Mondrian, a visionary artist of the 20th-century De Stijl movement. Mondrian's approach centered on using basic geometric shapes and primary colors—red, yellow, blue—set against black, white, and grey to create compositions that appeared both simple and structured. These principles became the foundation for the GreenForest collection, which embodies Mondrian's ideals of balance, precision, and harmony.

The collection pays homage to Mondrian's work by integrating strict lines and geometric shapes, creating furniture that is both minimalist and deeply dynamic. Each piece presents a balance between aesthetic appeal and functional adaptability, designed to meet the needs of modern workspaces. Through this, Semprini and GreenForest achieved an impressive blend of clarity and elegance without compromising on the comfort or usability essential to office environments.

GreenForest at Orgatec 2024: An Interactive and Creative Stand
At Orgatec, GreenForest's collection received widespread attention, with industry professionals, designers, and visitors recognizing the innovative design ethos embodied in each piece. The collaboration with Roberto Semprini brought a fresh perspective to workspace furniture, showcasing how art and practicality can coexist to enhance productivity and inspire creativity in professional settings.

The GreenForest Office 21 collection stood out for its ability to bridge the gap between art and function, reflecting both Mondrian's influence and Semprini's distinct design philosophy.
