Bonaldo's B/Style in a charming lake view villa

B/Style is a curated furniture program in which each item is selected to be part of a space, resulting in a dialogue between products created by different designers, but united by Bonaldo’s distinctive style.

Bonaldo's philosophy about the products selected for the B/Style program is ‘making the styles of the designers who created them resonate as if playing together in an orchestra.’

In this year’s B/Style catalogue, Bonaldo proposes a number of settings, each capable of fully expressing the overall vision constituting the very essence of B/Style: products by different designers but united by the brand’s signature style, all expertly matched to form a strong identity thread between the spaces.

Deep Charm is the name Bonaldo has chosen for one of these settings. A villa with huge windows overlooking the lake, surrounded by greenery and hills. Deep Charm brings together various furniture elements in a dialogue that goes beyond mere juxtaposition. Tables and chairs, sofas, bookshelves and other accessories furnish the interiors of the villa in a contemporary, Bonaldo-branded atmosphere, all in the name of B/Style. Every item is Made in Italy using quality materials and features unique finishes, details and colours that reflect Bonaldo’s distinctive identity.

In the Deep Charm space created with Bonaldo furniture, the Bonamour sofa is characterized by precise proportions and clean lines, becoming its central axis. The rectangular modules can be used to create customized linear and corner compositions. In this case the sofa is proposed in two modules that, together, create an L shape version combined with a separate comfortable pouf. The practical and elegant Paddle coffee table makes room between the modules, in order to have a useful top on which to place books, glasses or other objects while relaxing on the sofa.

In front of the sofa the ensemble of the Kumo coffee tables is in contrast with the rigorous geometry of the Bonamour blocks, enhanced by a tailored stitching that forms a slight curvature of the seating. On the other side the materials perfectly blend together with the other items in the room. The metal base of the Kumo coffee tables for example match with the Pin floor lamp placed at the back of the sofa, offering the perfect light for a reading moment.

Some products are easy to place in different areas that, in an open plan villa, are close yet difficult to delimit: Bonaldo's products help in this: the Olos armchair is an iconic piece of furniture that can stand alone in a room and be just perfect everywhere. In this living room, it can be oriented towards the Bonamour sofa for a more convivial area with many seating options, or towards the Kaos bookshelf for a more secluded corner dedicated to reading.

The combination of these elements, conceived by different designers, is evident in the mix and match of materials: the Backdrop sideboard, designed by Alain Gilles, with its vertical cuts that recall the facades of modernist buildings, is made of wood like the structure of the Olos armchair, the elements of the Kaos bookshelf and the Paddle coffee table.

Moving towards the dining area, the sculptural Mellow table, designed by Bartoli Design, attracts attention. Its curved forms are in harmony with the aesthetics of soft simplicity. The base elements seem to embrace each other and create an expressive plasticity of volumes. The table top is available in different materials, in this case in ceramic enlightened by the Bon Ton suspension lamp composition.

Completing the dining area is the Neuilly chair by designer Fabrice Berrux. Its graphically designed legs are combined with an upholstered seat and an ergonomic backrest that ensures a natural posture for the back and offers free support for the arms.

Bonaldo stands out for its ability to create timeless furniture. All the models in the collection fit perfectly into living spaces, complementing and dialoguing with each other. The pieces in the collection reveal their own character both by standing alone and interacting with the others.
