Once a year the international design crowd flocks to Milan, Italy for one of the most important and exciting events of the year – The Salone del Mobile from April 17 – 22!
The ones interested in the big brands like Moroso, B&B Italia, Valcucine or Crassevig (we’ve worked with for our swing at Hotel Savoy Grado) should visit the Official Salone in Rho while the ones who love hunting for new trends, ideas, products and prototypes should roam around the various districts of Milan like Brera, Tortona or Ventura … and this is exactly what we love about Milan Design Week! New faces, new ideas and cool new products hidden everywhere around town waiting to be discovered!
