Milano Design Week 2019: Ventura Projects moves to BASE, Belgium returns with sustainable design
Ventura Projects marks its tenth anniversary by moving to BASE Milano for Ventura Future, while Ventura Centrale expands its exhibitions from 9 to 16. The collaboration at BASE features 'UN-learn/RE-learn,' showcasing contributions from Italo Rota, Marco Cadioli, Salottobuono, Cittadelladellarte, Stefano Mirti, and Super. Notable highlights include works by Isabelle Sanchez Jacques, SOM, and Studio Schneemann. The Dutch exhibit 'Future (H)eart(H),' backed by the Dutch Embassy, emphasizes bio design. In response to Design School Kolding's inquiry 'Where do you feel at home?', international academies participate. A €5 ticket supports exhibitors, whereas Ventura Centrale remains free, displaying Japanese studios and installations like Yamaha's 'Pulse' and Freitag's 'Unfluencer.' Belgium returns with 'The New Belgians' at SaloneSatellite and 'Generous Nature' at Opificio 31. Dutch designer Joland Van der Wiel showcases 'Journey of a Raindrop' at Issey Miyake's store.
