Milan Furniture Fair update

16th April 2013

By Ben Flannaghan

Milan furniture fair was incredible, with Salone Internazionale del Mobile big enough to easily take up a week alone. I did a whistle stop tour of the main 3 design districts in Milan which is arguably more interesting and features an eclectic mix of brands and styles. Most by Tom Dixon, Edit, Hybrid and Designers Block were great events, with the wire installation (shown below) was found in a back ally in the Brera Design District. Every space was used to exhibit work whether it be a rough and ready design concept or an established brand. Most events would run on until 9pm or 12pm allowing for a lovely blur between drinking and design events.
