Paf Atelier's Cinema of Dreams at Milan Design Week 2026

During Milan Design Week 2026, the Paf atelier, under the direction of Christopher Dessus, unveils 'Cinema of Dreams' within the ROOM FOR DREAMS event at ME Milan Il Duca. This installation reinterprets cinema as a reflective space where imagination, bodies, and visuals converge. Dessus refers to it as 'a space of dreams,' inviting guests to contemplate 'the optimism and new possibilities of the new generation.' The design features rhythmic drapes of reflective fabric with circular nodes, forming wave-like patterns in silver and blue. A cushioned, curved floor encourages relaxation, while an intentionally disorienting entrance gradually unveils the space. The project runs from April 20–26, 2026, with public access from April 21–26, 10:00–20:00. Partners include SolidNature, Ressence, La Marzocco, OPPO, and INDX|GLOBAL, along with cinema collaborators like Louisiana Channel and Bêka and Lemoine. Photography is by Camilla Mansini and Giorgio Gagliano. This initiative is part of designboom's Dreams in Motion chapter.
