Salone del Mobile 2017: Ventura Centrale, SaloneSatellite 20th Anniversary, and DeLightFul Installation
In fewer than 60 days, the 56th Salone del Mobile will commence in Milan, marking the 20th anniversary of SaloneSatellite with two key initiatives: a limited edition of 40 designs from acclaimed designers and an exhibition curated by Beppe Finessi, entitled 'SALONESATELLITE. 20 anni di nuova creatività'. Since its inception in 1998, SaloneSatellite has showcased over 10,000 emerging talents, such as Nendo and Matali Crasset. Under Massimiliano Fuksas' glass sail, the fair will host two exhibitions: 'A Joyful Sense At Work' featuring four international studios and DeLightFul by Simone Ciarmoli and Miguel Queda. Additionally, Ventura Lambrate will grow with Ventura Centrale at Milano Centrale station, highlighting installations by Maarten Baas, Luca Nichetto, Lee Broom, Central Saint Martins, and Logotel.
