A Passion for Italian Design
Founded by Irish entrepreneur Kate Macklin, Italian Solutions was born from her deep appreciation for Italy’s culture, craftsmanship, and world-renowned design heritage. After settling in Italy, Macklin transformed her lifelong passion for interiors into a business dedicated to connecting international clients with the finest Italian furniture manufacturers and artisans. Today, she continues to lead the company as Founder and Business Development Manager, helping shape projects across the globe.
More Than Furniture Procurement
Italian Solutions has developed far beyond a traditional furniture supplier. The company offers a complete procurement and consultancy service, managing every stage of a project, from selecting furniture and finishes to coordinating production, logistics, delivery, and installation.
Its extensive network includes both internationally renowned luxury brands and specialist Italian manufacturers, allowing clients to source everything from statement furniture pieces to fully bespoke interior collections tailored to each project’s unique requirements.
Design Consultancy with a Tailored Approach
One of Italian Solutions’ greatest strengths lies in its collaborative design consultancy service. Rather than replacing architects or interior designers, the company works alongside them, providing technical expertise, mood boards, finish samples, furniture specifications, and custom design solutions.
For projects requiring bespoke furniture, the in-house team collaborates closely with skilled Italian craftsmen to create made-to-measure pieces that perfectly complement each interior, ensuring functionality, aesthetics, and exceptional craftsmanship are seamlessly combined
Delivering Luxury Projects Worldwide
Over the years, Italian Solutions has contributed to an impressive portfolio of luxury residential, hospitality, and commercial projects across multiple continents.
Its work can be found in prestigious developments including private residences, luxury hotels, executive offices, yachts, ski chalets, and high-end model apartments. Notable collaborations include projects for the Four Seasons Hotel Downtown New York, residences in Hong Kong, Miami, Vancouver, Tokyo, Shanghai, Athens, and numerous private luxury homes worldwide.
Through Kate Macklin’s vision and the expertise of her multidisciplinary team, Italian Solutions has become far more than a procurement company. It serves as a bridge between Italy’s extraordinary furniture industry and luxury projects across the globe, offering clients access to authentic Made in Italy design supported by comprehensive consultancy, bespoke manufacturing, and flawless execution.
