Italian furniture brand Lema opens first flagship in London
Italian furniture brand Lema has announced the opening of its first company-owned flagship store, located at 183 Kings Road in London. Founded in 1970 by the Meroni family, who remain at the helm to this day, Lema has a strong tradition of Italian manufacturing. Lema specialises in high quality, design-led furniture with a precision of construction and a timeless, understated design aesthetic. The Kings Road flagship store is designed by Piero Lissoni and has been conceived to stage the two main identities of the Group, Lema Casa and Lema Contract. These two manufacturing realities represent two separate but interconnected pillars of the Lema brand, united by a common thread: the culture of know-how, tradition and innovation that has always defined the essence of Italian design and the unique world inhabited by Lema’s collections. Distributed over two floors, will house Lema Casa collections, as well as design collaborations, which features products by international designers including Gordon Guillaumier, Francesco Rota, Neri & Hu, Raw Edges, Nendo, Werner Aisslinger, and Christopher Pillet.
