During Milan Design Week 2026, Ernestomeda presents Sign Round, the latest evolution of Sign, one of the brand’s most iconic models designed by Giuseppe Bavuso, architect and art director of the company. The new project reinterprets the formal language of Sign while preserving its strong aesthetic identity, further affirming its role as a statement kitchen—open, convivial, and inherently contemporary.

Since its introduction, Sign has reshaped the concept of the kitchen as a natural extension of the living environment, moving beyond the traditional notion of a purely functional area. With Sign Round, this vision progresses further through a refined balance of design, functionality, and material sensitivity. The model introduces soft, enveloping lines, expressed through fluid and harmonious curves that redefine the perception of space.

Drawing inspiration from the sinuous geometries of the 1970s, Sign Round translates this aesthetic into a contemporary interpretation. A key element is the island’s elevated snack table, extending outward like a wing—a distinctive feature that conveys lightness, dynamism, and a sense of seamless spatial flow.

Attention to detail—long a hallmark of the Sign collection—achieves new depth in Sign Round. Its sophisticated finishes enhance the project’s identity through delicate contrasts and rich materiality. At the same time, the selection of innovative materials and manufacturing processes reflects Ernestomeda’s ongoing commitment to a conscious balance between aesthetics and sustainability, promoting durability and ease of recycling.

With Sign Round, Ernestomeda reaffirms its ability to evolve its most emblematic creations through constant research and design innovation, placing quality and contemporary living at the heart of its approach.
