Las Mobili: modern Italian design for functional office spaces
Las Mobili is a trusted name for Italian office furniture that combines design, functionality, and quality. When multinational corporations invest in workspace design, they're making a 10-15 year commitment. Las Mobili has become the specification choice for blue-chip companies across Europe, the Middle East and Asia because it solves three critical challenges simultaneously: timeless Italian design that won't look dated in five years, 100% Italian manufacturing with full traceability for ESG reporting, and modularity that protects your investment when you need to expand or reconfigure. Here's a scenario every facilities manager recognises: You're furnishing a new headquarters. You source executive desks from Supplier A, operational workstations from Supplier B, meeting tables from Supplier C, and partition systems from Supplier D. Four months later, you're coordinating four different delivery schedules, three installation teams who don't talk to each other, and one finish that "doesn't quite match" despite assurances it would be "close enough". Short answer: Yes, and this is precisely what Las Mobili was designed for. Think in spatial zones, not product categories: Pricing transparency matters when you're planning budgets or presenting to clients. Here's what to expect per workstation, including desk, storage and seating: Let's be direct: Every manufacturer claims to be "sustainable" now. Here's how to verify if it's real: The biggest mistake in workplace design? Treating technology as an afterthought. By the time you're pulling cables through completed desks or drilling holes in new worktops, you've already lost. Here's the Las Mobili approach: An executive office needs to accomplish three things simultaneously: impress visitors, enable focused work, and host small meetings. Here's the process:

Frequently Asked Questions about Las Mobili
Why do global companies like Jaguar, British Gas and Reliance choose Las Mobili?
The Las Mobili advantage for corporate rollouts:
Future-proof modularity: Systems like Elite and Sigma allow you to add 50 workstations in Year Three that seamlessly match your original installation. Try doing that with most manufacturers whose ranges change every 18 months.
Specification-grade finishes: Fenix-NTM® surfaces that resist scratches and fingerprints, ceramic tops that bring executive gravitas, sculptural bases (like Monolith) that make a statement in any boardroom from London to Dubai.
Environmental credentials that matter: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, REACH compliance, FSC/PEFC certified wood, low-emission panels, and 100% renewable energy manufacturing from 2025. Everything your procurement team needs for tender documentation.
Real-world longevity: 5-year warranty as standard, with spare parts availability guaranteed for 10+ years. When you're furnishing 500 workstations across multiple offices, this isn't a detail—it's essential risk management.
La Mercanti provides the specification support, technical sheets and project coordination that A&D practices require, whilst maintaining the competitive pricing that makes CFOs happy.Why choose Las Mobili through La Mercanti instead of juggling multiple suppliers?
Las Mobili through La Mercanti eliminates this chaos entirely. One manufacturer covering executive suites (Jera, Monolith, Elite), operational zones (Sigma, 5th Element), meeting spaces (IMeet tables), reception areas and partition walls. One project manager coordinating site surveys, layout approvals, specifications, deliveries and installations. One consistent finish palette across your entire workspace. One invoice. One warranty. One point of accountability when something needs attention.
Where this really matters:
Multi-site rollouts: Furnishing regional offices in Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh? Consistent specifications, coordinated timelines, volume pricing.
Public sector tenders: Full CAM compliance documentation, environmental certifications, and technical support for tender responses—all from one source.
Phased fit-outs: Floor 3 this quarter, Floor 5 next quarter? Your finish codes remain valid, your lead times stay predictable, and your budget doesn't get renegotiated halfway through.
Design modifications: When the MD decides they want a 240cm desk instead of 200cm (and they always do), you're calling one person, not playing telephone across four suppliers.
For A&D professionals, this means you maintain design authority whilst La Mercanti handles the commercial coordination, technical specifications, and site logistics that consume hours you'd rather spend designing.Can Las Mobili genuinely meet public sector procurement requirements and environmental tenders?
Long answer: Las Mobili holds ISO 9001 (quality management), ISO 14001 (environmental management), and full REACH compliance. The manufacturing facility in Tortoreto uses FSC/PEFC certified wood, low-emission panels, and will operate on 100% renewable energy from 2025. For UK public sector procurement and European tenders requiring Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) or GPP (Green Public Procurement) compliance, Las Mobili provides complete documentation.
When Las Mobili wins tenders:
Projects requiring 20+ workstations where quality and sustainability carry significant weighting. Las Mobili excels in "best value" competitions where environmental credentials, warranty terms (5 years + 10-year parts availability), and total cost of ownership matter more than simply lowest price.
When to specify alternatives:
Tenders where absolute lowest price is the sole determinant. Las Mobili occupies the premium-midmarket position—exceptional quality at accessible pricing, but not competing with budget imports.
La Mercanti provides: Technical datasheets, environmental declarations, sustainability reports, and specification support for tender responses. We've supported successful bids for government departments, NHS trusts, universities and local authorities across the UK and Europe.How do architects and designers choose between Las Mobili ranges in a single project without creating visual chaos?
Executive & Boardroom (Impact + Materiality): Jera for clean Italian minimalism, Enosi for architectural volume, Elite for modular luxury, Monolith when you need sculptural presence and ceramic drama. These are your statement pieces—the spaces clients see and remember.
Operational & Coworking (Density + Flexibility): Sigma and 5th Element bench systems for team spaces that need to reconfigure as headcount changes. Integrated cable management, cleanable surfaces, and layouts that accommodate 120° or 180° configurations without looking like a call centre.
Meeting & Training (Collaboration + Technology): IMeet tables with power/data integration, or operational systems adapted with tech accessories. Size for actual usage—an 8-person table seats 6 comfortably in real life.
Reception (First Impression + Brand): Reception counters that coordinate with your main palette but provide the "welcome moment" that sets the tone. Height, accessibility, and material quality all matter here.
The finish strategy: Las Mobili's strength is finish consistency across ranges. Specify your three core finishes (e.g., White Fenix / Natural Oak / Anthracite metal) and carry them through every zone. This creates visual coherence whilst allowing functional variety.
La Mercanti provides: Finish samples, mood boards, full specification sheets, and coordination support to ensure your design intent translates perfectly to the actual installation. We speak both designer language and contractor language—which saves you weeks of back-and-forth.What does it actually cost to furnish with Las Mobili? (Real numbers for budget planning)
Operational workstation (team member): €1,200–€1,800
Sigma or Elite desk (120-160cm), mobile pedestal, task chair. Clean, functional, professional. What most of your workforce needs.
Managerial workstation (department head): €2,200–€3,500
Elite desk (180-200cm), credenza or tall storage unit, managerial chair. The step-up that signals responsibility without excess.
Executive suite (C-level): €3,500–€6,500
Monolith or top-specification Elite with ceramic or premium Fenix finish, executive storage, presidential seating. The workspace that impresses in video calls and client meetings.
Meeting room (8-person): €4,500–€8,000
IMeet conference table with integrated power/data, 8 meeting chairs. Add acoustics and AV separately.
Real project example: A 25-person office (1 CEO, 3 managers, 21 team members, plus 2 meeting rooms) typically runs €38,000–€53,000 depending on finishes and storage requirements. That's approximately €1,500–€2,100 per person for a complete, professional workspace that will serve you for a decade.
Volume pricing: Projects over 50 workstations receive preferential pricing. Multi-site rollouts and framework agreements receive additional consideration.
What affects final cost: Finish selection (ceramic costs more than melamine), storage density (every desk doesn't need a full pedestal), and delivery logistics (6th floor without service lift costs more than ground floor). La Mercanti provides detailed quotations with no hidden surprises.Is Las Mobili's environmental commitment genuine or just marketing greenwash?
Certified systems, not just intentions: ISO 14001 environmental management certification requires annual audits and continuous improvement documentation. This isn't a badge you buy—it's a system you maintain.
Material traceability: FSC/PEFC wood certification means every timber component can be traced to its forest origin. Low-emission panels (E1/E0 classification) are tested, not assumed. REACH compliance for every chemical and adhesive used.
Manufacturing accountability: The Tortoreto facility is transitioning to 100% renewable energy from 2025, with published carbon reduction targets. Reduced plastic packaging with recyclable alternatives. Efficient production systems that minimise waste.
Longevity as sustainability: A 5-year warranty backed by 10+ years of spare parts availability means your furniture doesn't become landfill when one component fails. Modular systems that expand rather than replace mean your Year One investment still works in Year Ten.
Why this matters for your project:
ESG reporting: Corporate clients need traceable environmental data for annual reporting. Las Mobili provides the documentation.
Public tenders: CAM/GPP compliance isn't optional for government projects—it's mandatory. Las Mobili meets the requirements without premium pricing.
Client presentations: A&D practices can confidently present Las Mobili as a sustainable specification backed by verifiable data, not vague claims.
La Mercanti provides complete environmental documentation for every project: Material safety data sheets, environmental product declarations, carbon footprint data, and certification copies. If you're writing a sustainability report or tender response, we give you what you need.How do I design tech-ready workspaces with Las Mobili without endless cable chaos and expensive retrofits?
Layer 1—Power & Data Infrastructure: Operational desks and meeting tables with lift-off tops, cabled leg frames, and integrated cable management. This means your electrician installs to the furniture location, not through it. Clean, accessible, modifiable without carpentry.
Layer 2—Workspace Integration: Desktop power modules, pop-up sockets, and clamp-on cable trays as standard options—not expensive custom extras. Plan for two power points and one data port per person minimum (people have phones, laptops, and tablets).
Layer 3—Acoustic Privacy: Partition walls, glazed screens, and acoustic panels create focus spaces and meeting zones without permanent construction. Relocatable as your needs change. Sound-absorbing storage units do double duty—organisation plus noise control.
Layer 4—AV Coordination: Meeting rooms with cable routes pre-planned for displays, cameras, and conferencing equipment. No surface-mount trunking ruining your sightlines.
For A&D professionals: La Mercanti provides electrical layouts coordinated with furniture plans. Your services engineer gets exact socket locations before first fix. Your IT contractor knows cable routes before installation day. Your client sees a completed space without visible wiring disasters.
For facilities managers: When you need to add three people to a team, you're installing desks and plugging them in—not commissioning an electrician for three days of chasing and patching.
This isn't complicated technology. It's thoughtful planning. Las Mobili systems are designed for real workplaces where things change, people move, and technology evolves. Your furniture should enable this, not fight it.How-To Guides
Step-by-step: How to design a Las Mobili executive office that actually functions
Step 1—Measure and assess: Room dimensions (don't forget door swing clearance), window positions (glare on screens?), power and data locations (where they are now, not where you wish they were), and architectural features that matter (columns, radiators, sprinklers).
Step 2—Choose your collection based on aesthetic intent: Monolith if you want sculptural drama and material presence (ceramic tops, architectural bases—this is the "statement office"). Elite if you want sophisticated modularity with premium finishes (Fenix surfaces, integrated storage—this is the "serious executive office"). Jera if you want clean Italian minimalism (less is more—this is the "refined taste office").
Step 3—Size the desk properly: 200cm width minimum for a CEO—anything smaller looks tentative. 220-240cm if the room allows and they genuinely use the space (multiple monitors, document review, model presentations). Depth: 100cm for substantial presence, 90cm if space is genuinely tight.
Step 4—Plan storage with actual purpose: Mobile pedestal under the desk (personal items, working files). Low credenza behind or beside (reference materials, concealed storage, display surface). Tall unit only if the room is large enough and they genuinely need filing capacity (most executives don't anymore—be honest about this).
Step 5—Cable management strategy: Use Las Mobili's integrated systems—cabled legs, worktop grommets, cable trays. Run power to the desk location during first fix. Plan for desk lamp, computer, phone, phone charger (yes, another socket for this), and guest laptop charging.
Step 6—Lighting layers: Architectural lighting (ceiling), task lighting (desk lamp that actually illuminates work), and accent lighting (if displaying anything worth highlighting). Don't rely on one ceiling fitting for a 25m² room.
Step 7—Meeting zone (if space permits): Two lounge chairs and a coffee table for informal discussions, positioned away from the desk. This changes the power dynamic from "executive behind desk" to "collaborative conversation". Budget €1,800–€3,000 for this zone.
Step 8—Layout flow: Desk position where the executive sees the door (psychology matters) without sitting directly in the door's sightline (privacy matters). Minimum 120cm clearance behind the chair (so they can actually push back and stand). Clear path from door to desk to meeting zone. Credenza accessible without chair gymnastics.
Reality check on budget: A properly specified executive office runs €6,000–€8,000 for a functional, impressive space. €9,000–€12,000 if adding the meeting zone. Less than this and you're compromising quality. More than this and you're either choosing ultra-premium finishes or being oversold.
La Mercanti provides: 2D layout plans, 3D visualisations if required for client approval, finish samples, complete specification sheets, and installation coordination. We've designed executive offices for FTSE companies, government departments, and family businesses—the process is similar, the expectations differ.
