For the brand, play has always been more than entertainment: since its earliest years, Danese has explored the educational potential of objects, creating projects that stimulate observation, imagination and discovery through direct interaction.</p><p style=\"text-align: justify\">This approach continues in the 2026 collection with two new projects by <strong>Michele De Lucchi</strong> &mdash; <em><strong>La Fattoria di Chele</strong></em> and <em><strong>Chele Puzzle</strong></em> &mdash; which bring the designer&#039;s distinctive graphic language into the world of play, alongside two timeless classics by <strong>Enzo Mari</strong> that have shaped generations of children and adults alike.</p>\n    <figure\n        class=\"release-content-image release-content-image--contained release-content-image--align-center\"\n        data-component=\"image-zoom-popup\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-selector=\".release-content-image__image\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-i18n=\"data:application/json;base64,eyJEb3dubG9hZCI6IkRvd25sb2FkIn0=\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-views-event=\"Story Image View\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-download-event=\"Story Image Download\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-placement=\"content\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n            <img\n                src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/7fd553fb-8221-45f6-913b-f515a5dd2eb5/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                                class=\"release-content-image__image image-thumbnail-rollover__image\"\n                data-description=\"&lt;em&gt;Chele Puzzle by Michele de Lucchi for Danese Milano.

A series of colourful, stylised elements inspired by the animal kingdom can be freely combined to create existing or imaginary creatures, encouraging experimentation and storytelling through play.

Eight farm animals emerge from circular Chilean pine panels, becoming both decorative objects and playful companions. Defined by quick, essential lines, the figures reflect De Lucchi&#039;s immediate and expressive approach to drawing, distilling each animal to its most recognisable features.</p><p style=\"text-align: justify\">Cut from a single 9 mm-thick wooden panel, the circular support and the animal silhouette separate into two independent elements. Elevated slightly by a felt backing, each figure acquires an almost sculptural presence, balancing graphic simplicity with tactile appeal.</p>\n    <figure\n        class=\"release-content-image release-content-image--contained release-content-image--align-center\"\n        data-component=\"image-zoom-popup\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-selector=\".release-content-image__image\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-i18n=\"data:application/json;base64,eyJEb3dubG9hZCI6IkRvd25sb2FkIn0=\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-views-event=\"Story Image View\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-download-event=\"Story Image Download\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-placement=\"content\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n            <img\n                src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/44fb5ebf-89d1-43ef-a3fa-7e238b199504/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                                class=\"release-content-image__image image-thumbnail-rollover__image\"\n                data-description=\"&lt;em&gt;16 animali by Enzo Mari for Danese Milano&lt;/em&gt;\"\n                id=\"image-44fb5ebf-89d1-43ef-a3fa-7e238b199504\"\n                data-id=\"44fb5ebf-89d1-43ef-a3fa-7e238b199504\"\n                data-original=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/44fb5ebf-89d1-43ef-a3fa-7e238b199504/-/inline/no/Screenshot+2026-06-10+alle+10.02.19.png\"\n                data-mfp-src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/44fb5ebf-89d1-43ef-a3fa-7e238b199504/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                alt=\"16 animali by Enzo Mari for Danese Milano\"\n            />\n            <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover__caption\">\n                <svg class=\"icon icon-expand image-thumbnail-rollover__caption-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-expand\"></use>\n            </svg>            </div>\n        </div>\n\n        <figcaption class=\"release-content-image__caption\"><em>16 animali by Enzo Mari for Danese Milano</em></figcaption>\n    </figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Alongside these new introductions, Danese Milano reaffirms its design heritage through two masterpieces by Enzo Mari. Both <em>16 Animali</em> and <em>16 Pesci </em>are based on a deceptively simple idea: a single continuous cut that generates sixteen different figures from one piece of wood. More than puzzles, they are exercises in perception and form, demonstrating Mari&#039;s extraordinary ability to combine intellectual rigour, playfulness and manufacturing ingenuity.</p>\n    <figure\n        class=\"release-content-image release-content-image--contained release-content-image--align-center\"\n        data-component=\"image-zoom-popup\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-selector=\".release-content-image__image\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-i18n=\"data:application/json;base64,eyJEb3dubG9hZCI6IkRvd25sb2FkIn0=\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-views-event=\"Story Image View\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-download-event=\"Story Image Download\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-placement=\"content\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n            <img\n                src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/87900e61-2d28-4599-b449-9a9be0158b16/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                                class=\"release-content-image__image image-thumbnail-rollover__image\"\n                data-description=\"&lt;em&gt;16 pesci by Enzo Mari for Danese Milano&lt;/em&gt;\"\n                id=\"image-87900e61-2d28-4599-b449-9a9be0158b16\"\n                data-id=\"87900e61-2d28-4599-b449-9a9be0158b16\"\n                data-original=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/87900e61-2d28-4599-b449-9a9be0158b16/-/inline/no/Screenshot+2026-06-10+alle+10.02.31.png\"\n                data-mfp-src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/87900e61-2d28-4599-b449-9a9be0158b16/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                alt=\"16 pesci by Enzo Mari for Danese Milano\"\n            />\n            <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover__caption\">\n                <svg class=\"icon icon-expand image-thumbnail-rollover__caption-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-expand\"></use>\n            </svg>            </div>\n        </div>\n\n        <figcaption class=\"release-content-image__caption\"><em>16 pesci by Enzo Mari for Danese Milano</em></figcaption>\n    </figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Together, these four projects express a shared vision of play as a tool for discovery and imagination.
