Idiorythmia • New collection
MYCELIUM LIVINGSTONES

from Livingstones to ephemeral eventful mycelium grown forms

A family of soft, organic volumes cultivated from mycelium — the living root network of fungi. Each piece is grown rather than manufactured, shaped in moulds derived from the original Livingstones vocabulary. Lightweight, tactile forms with a warm, mineral-like presence — seats, low tables, or landscape elements that invite the body to settle, lean, gather. Designed to meet the temporality of semi-ephemeral contexts — events, pop-up spaces, seasonal installations, short- and medium-term programmes — where furniture is needed intensely, then must disappear without a trace.
At end of use, each piece returns to the soil: fully compostable, leaving no waste, no storage burden, no dismantling. Mycelium offers remarkable properties: acoustic absorption, thermal comfort, natu- ral fire resistance, and full compostability at end of life.  By replacing industrial foams with a living organism, the Mycelium Livingstones extend the circular logic at the heart of smarin’s practice: from earth, back to earth.
 materials mycelium composite (agricultural substrate + fungal mycelium), 100% biodegradable organic mould forms

CHICHI : a bouncing stool
Where conventional seating asks the body to hold still, CHICHI invites micro-motion: rebounding, swaying, finding and maintaining balance. The body stays active, never locked into a single posture but continuously adjusting through play. This research extends the rebound principle first explored in the sChaise : the idea that a springy seat generates dynamic muscular engagement, supports healthy posture, and sustains attention.  No two bodies sit on CHICHI the same way. The seat becomes a personal rhythm instrument: a place where bodily intelligence is not directed toward a task, but freed as its own end.  In a world of static furniture and sedentary habits, CHICHI proposes a counter-position : the devoir de fun — an insistence that pleasure, movement, and play are a necessary foundation.

materials solid wood from industrial offcuts wool from textile waste streams (MARLAINE R&D) — from waste to conversation

Institut Français Milano
exhibition • IDIORYTHMIA •

On the occasion of Milan Design Week 2026, and through June, invites the smarin studio to present IDIORYTHMIA.
This new chapter explores how our contemporary lives are shaped by multiple temporal regimes—sometimes harmonious, often dissonant—including biological rhythms, technological cadences, institutional temporalities, urban flows, production cycles, ecological dynamics, and the economy of attention.
Building on this observation, smarin develops a design approach attentive to the tensions between speeds, viewed not only as constraints but also as realities to be observed, interpreted, and transformed.

“Inter·Rhythmic Studies” defines an operational framework for designing environments that integrate rest and ecological regeneration as spatial functions, and foster an awareness of the rhythms of materials, spaces, objects, and bodies.

MILANO DESIGN WEEK 2026
smarin presents IDIORYTHMIA :
Inter·rhythmic studies

Contemporary life unfolds within overlapping temporal regimes:
biological rhythms, technological schedules, institutional timetables, urban flows, production cycles, environmental dynamics, industrial ecologies, and attention economies.

Drawing on the rhythmanalysis of Henri Lefebvre, and informed by research in the social sciences and psychology, Inter·Rhythmic Studies investigates the role of rhythm in everyday life. Rather than treating tensions between heterogeneous velocities as disturbances to be neutralized, the project examines how such frictions can be documented, interpreted, and transformed into design opportunities.

The inquiry foregrounds idiorythmy—a concept developed by Roland Barthes to describe the coexistence of singular rhythms within a shared milieu—as a key paradigm for rethinking spatial organization and contemporary forms of collectivity. In collaboration with design theorist , we propose a transdisciplinary platform in which conceptual speculation is embodied in tangible dispositifs, establishing a living laboratory of rhythmic experimentation.

MILANO DESIGN WEEK 2026
smarin presents the woodworking session at to produce the RE-U construction system.

Presented at the Ground Hall of BASE Milano, RE-U transforms the space into an adaptive organism.
This solid oak furniture system, made from secondary resources, is based on a fundamental principle: reversibility.Designed as a hybrid solution for evolving spaces, it allows for a wide variety of configurations: seating, desks, partitions, platforms, tables, storage units, or micro-architectures.
This multi-functional dimension enables a space to be quickly adapted to different uses, offering structural flexibility, durability, comfort, and sound insulation.

from 17.04 - Milan V. Ambrogio Bergognone da Fossano, 34
23.04 - Talk bringing together smarin studio and design theorist Emanuele Quinz, moderated by Alessandro Scarano, Web Editor at Domus.

Join the woodworking session at to produce the Re-U system, part of the Idiorythmia exhibition for We Will Design 2026, initiated by , and the participation of .design.polimi

from 7 to 11 April.

It is a reversible, polymorphic furniture-system, designed to continuously reconfigure the space: from agora to screening room, from workspace to convivial area, and even to a performance stage or simply a place to stay, with capsules dedicated to rest. The Ground Hall thus becomes an adaptive organism, shifting in function and atmosphere according to the uses and communities that pass through it.

IDIORYTHMIA – RE-U is not only a spatial device. It is also an intervention that weaves together aesthetics and a political stance, bringing back to the centre a question that is too often overlooked: the economic sustainability of cultural work. Artists and designers, especially emerging ones, often struggle to afford accommodation in major cities during key moments such as Design Week—precisely when the need for encounter, exchange, and interdisciplinary dialogue becomes most urgent and generative.

C’est la rentrée !

ECOLETOPIE x ÉCOLE SAINT-CHARLES - MONACO

ECOLETOPIE is a proposed classroom layout, featuring new pedagogical practices based on system-furniture and tool-objects.
In this classroom, children will be able to develop their biomechanical potential, become aware of the importance of their posture and the role of the collective, and practice a form of aesthetic, sensitive interaction, without the aim of creating or producing.
A time dedicated to experimentation, as a counterpoint to speed and digital abundance. The proposal works to develop critical thinking by engaging students in their environment, cultivating the ability to concentrate and create meaning for the acquisition of expected competencies in the cycle of in-depth studies
Ecoletopie is not just a physical territory, a place for exploring new behaviors, it also opens the doors to shared cognitive spaces.
