Baxter – Timeless Italian Design with a West Coast Soul

Baxter is a symbol of timeless elegance, craftsmanship, and emotional design. Founded in 1990 in the heart of Brianza—Italy’s most revered furniture-making region—Baxter has established itself as a global icon in luxury interiors, combining artisanal mastery with cutting-edge creativity.

At the core of Baxter’s philosophy lies a bold experimentation with Italian leather. Every product is an expression of refined tailoring, natural imperfections, and textures that become more beautiful with time. The brand’s dedication to vegetable-tanned, full-grain leather has redefined the standards of quality and comfort in contemporary furniture.
Baxter collaborates with some of the most influential designers in the world, including Paola Navone, Roberto Lazzeroni, Draga & Aurel, and Studiopepe. Their visionary interpretations turn sofas, armchairs, beds, and lighting pieces into soulful objects that tell stories and evoke emotions. Each Baxter collection blends vintage charm with modern sensibility—an invitation to live slowly and beautifully.
In 2025, Baxter redefines contemporary luxury with the launch of its visionary new collection: “West Coast Aesthetics”. Presented within the immersive and entirely renovated Baxter Cinema in Milan, the collection pays tribute to the Californian design culture of the 1960s—an era that revolutionized the architectural and aesthetic language of interiors.

Baxter’s new collection is a masterful blend of Mid-Century Modern inspirations and experimental materiality. Reinterpreting American elegance through a contemporary Italian lens, the designs feature:
Sculptural tables with bold bases
Sleek chrome structures and refined leathers
Fluid geometries and warm, tactile materials
Soft leather seating and iconic lighting with artistic expression
Each piece tells a story of balance—between tradition and innovation, nature and architecture, elegance and experimentation.

An Immersive Design Journey
The renovated Baxter Cinema at Largo Augusto 1, Milan, becomes more than a showroom—it is a sensory installation. Ten years after its first opening, the space is transformed into a poetic stage of design:

Soft terrazzo flooring reflects natural light
Transparent curtains float like theatrical veils
Architectural volumes and textures create shifting visual perspectives
In this evocative environment, Baxter designers unveil the inspirations behind each piece, sharing narratives of form, material, color, and memory.

The new collection embraces three emotional chromatic themes:
Earthy neutrals inspired by Californian deserts
Sophisticated tones of sand, deep violets, and rose nudes
Vibrant contrasts of antique pink, brandy, and cyclamen—reflecting the sunsets and creativity of the 1960s West Coast
Design That Goes Beyond the Object
During Milan Design Week 2025, Baxter extended the collection into a multi-sensory experience by transforming the iconic ALTO Ristorante into a private pop-up space. Here, material, light, sound, and taste converge in a full-body narrative of design—accessible only to Baxter clients.
