Tacchini, created in 1965 by Antonio, when production, too, was almost entirely Italian, and the most poetic and soul-stirring passages in the story of design were written. Naturally in time the children become the heirs, and the new founders, in a rationale of continuous updating and redefinition of there underlyting idea, and that is what is actually handed down.
Cage
Minimalism and elegance are the key features of Cage coffee tables, with their metal base that is both support and frame for the precious marble top. Cage tables can be round or square, high or low, and they accompany and complement all the sofas and armchairs in the Tacchini collections.
Chill-out
A system of sofas, armchairs, poufs and coffee tables, inspired by the themes of freedom, simplicity and lightness, ChillOut are ideal for domestic or collective spaces, on their own or in a linear or corner composition. Featuring slim yet comfortable and cosy volumes, the upholstered pieces are accompanied by coffee tables in Carrara or basaltina marble, with an elegant matt finish: a historic material that adds both value and charm to this refined, contemporary design.
Crystal
Oblique corners reminding of ancient obelisk shapes, creating an architectural play of light and shadow. Full volumes seem to float above the floor, on hidden base.
Crystal is a collection of sofas and armchairs away from ordinary standards and cliches which gives birth to a suspended and dynamic effect with no need of aesthetical devices. It's just about smart and absolute simplicity.
Face to Face
Face to Face is designed to sit at the centre of the room, both in contract settings and in the intimacy of a domestic lounge room. The contrasting cross-stitched seams make it the perfect metaphor of any relationship between two people.
Float
Echoing the rounded, irregular shapes and ample size of icebergs, the Float ottomans are available in various sizes to meet the different needs and uses dictated by today’s lifestyles. The larger version has a natural Roman travertine top, so the ottoman can function not only as a seat or footstool but also as an actual coffee table.
Highlife
Simplicity and dynamism are the key elements for this solution: every piece features backs in different heights, whilst arms and cushions are pleasantly essential. This way, you can interestingly play with shapes and volumes and several composition opportunities are offered to create customized matches and ideal spaces to work, chat or relax.
Intercity
Intercity is a modular range that allows the creation of spaces suited to any environment and any requirement. With a wide choice of basic modules, straight, curved or peninsula configurations can be created. The upholstered seats can be combined as required, choosing different modules, to configure widely varying solutions. ᆰeats can be alternated with glass or laminate connecting tops.
Julep
Soft, enveloping shapes characterize this family of upholstered pieces. Julep is influenced by the 1950s Avant-Garde movement, drawing upon its simplicity and grandeur, refined by a contemporary, romantic, feminine allure. Star of the series is the sofa, whose generous rounded lines provided evolutionary DNA for the entire collection – including an armchair, a chaise-longue and an ottoman – in an interplay of proportions and shapes that gave rise, little by little, to all the other versions. Fully upholstered, the seats look ample and full, yet convey a sense of lightness, thanks to the recessed base that invisibly lifts them off the floor. Designed for home decor, their inviting appeal encourages cozy comfort and relaxation, making the Julep seating options also ideally suited to contract venues.

Lanbanca
A system of extremely versatile sofas, armchairs, and benches, developed and designed to suit any space and expressing an universal and international style with a fine and elegant form.
Lima
A system consisting of sofas and armchairs in different sizes, with a markedly sleek shape to receive the body nicely. Extra comfort is given by the large lumbar supporting cushion on the ample seat. Elegantly thin are the feet at the base of the frame, adding a touch of dynamism to the comfort.
Matera
Explore new creative scenarios in an imaginary tour of the extraordinary urban ecosystem – the Sassi di Matera. Here, the stratification of eras displays the continuity of past and future interactions, of natural elements and traces of culture that have accumulated over time, bare essentials, destined to last, that blend with the new contemporary fabric. Tacchini embraces this crossroads between past and present, molding it into a product – the Matera sectional system by Maltese designer, Gordon Guillaumier. Full-proportioned upholstered elements are assembled like stones, placed one next to another, which can stand alone or be mingled. Completing the arrangement are table top surfaces in wood, marble, or upholstered in fabric and equipped with wireless chargers at the places where the seats meet. The Matera family is designed for the contract market, to build informal seating islands for conversation, waiting, meetings and work.
