Studio Formafantasma
Milan, Italy

“A test bed for new ideas” was the overarching theme of the Stockholm Furniture Fair from February 6 to 10, 2024. The presentation was by no means as prosaic as the title, and in fact it quickly became clear: This ongoing experiment is starting to get playful.

The Salone del Mobile.Milano roadshow recently made a stop in Berlin to present the first insights into the concept for 2024 to the German public. On board: guest of honour Konstantin Grcic.

Elena Kayser recently attracted attention to herself as part of the "Mono Residency" when she reinterpreted a classic: the teapot from the Mono manufactory. For her jewellery label Studio Èna, the up-and-coming designer works with a traditional material that has lately had a shadowy existence in design: pewter.

From 18 to 23 April 2023, the Salone del Mobile.Milano will be held at the Fiera Milano Rho exhibition centre and include the Euroluce lighting biennale. Simone Farresin and Andrea Trimarchi, founders of the research-based design studio Formafantasma, have created modular exhibition designs for it. Andrea Trimarchi explains the concept to us in an interview.

Until February 20, 2022, the London Design Museum presents the show "Waste Age: What can design do?

September is approaching and with it the supersalone – a highly anticipated event that brings the design scene back together in Milan after the dry spell of the last few months. In addition to the exhibition at the fairgrounds, you can look forward to a wide range of events in the city. We show you which events you should not miss.

Formafantasma, YOY, Thukral & Tagra and Tej Chauhan have collaborated with Rado to create wristwatches that equally celebrate the future and tradition.
