ARMANI CASA SALUTES THE NATURAL WORLD
Like many of us living through a lengthy period of lockdown, Giorgio Armani has, of late, been keen to reconnect with nature. The creative master’s latest collection for Armani Casa, which debuts this week at Salone del Mobile 2021, looks to bring the serenity of the great outdoors inside, and features interior pieces, including a limited-edition bar cabinet, a writing desk, a screen, and soft furnishings, in tones and textures that salute nature, from oceanic hues and earthy neutrals to exotic animal prints.
DIOR MEDALLION CHAIR
To mark this special edition of Salone del Mobile, Diorinvited 17 international artists and designers to reinterpret the medallion chair, a symbol of the French fashion house since its inception in 1947.
HERMÈS: A COLLECTION IN RAW AND TACTILE MATERIALS
Taking over sports center La Pelota in Milan’s Brera district, Hermèshas unveiled a collection rich in raw and tactile materials including the “Sillage d’Hermès” armchair with a rounded shape and vintage flair designed by Studio Mumbai.
BOCA DO LOBO
Boca do Lobo couldn’t possibly miss such an importantdesign fair, and in this year’s attendance has some of the brand’s most starstruck pieces, as well as Boca do Lobo’s 2021 novelty designs! Meet them at HALL 1 – C04.
IN THE ROSSANA GARDEN, THE PLASTIC IS GREEN
Join the queue to enter the Rossana Orlandi Master Gallery on Via Bandello, as per the script. Make sure you take a moment to relax under the bar’s pergola in the magnificent secret garden, where this year the green of the climbers blends with “Guiltless Plastic”, the recycled plastic to which RO Guiltless Plastic is dedicated, a project conceived together with the designer’s daughter, Nicoletta Orlandi Brugnoni. Inside, discover the multifaceted and international interpretation of what plastic can become when it stops being waste: furniture, tableware, fashion, sculpture.
TRADITION AND INNOVATION FROM DIMOREGALLERY
DimoreStudio blends history and contemporaneity with elegant irreverence. Intriguingly, the wallpaper is hung to contrast with paintwork in rooms punctuated by unique Bitossi pieces. In the section dedicated to the rediscovery of the work of rationalist architect Claudio Salocchi (1934-2012), we can see a mise-en-scène of his house with radically modern furniture—modular sofa, free-standing bookcase, storage desk, a Louis XV console table, and mid-century art.
ODYSSEY BY ANDRÉS REISINGER
Earlier this year, Andrés Reisingercaptured the attention of the design world with The Shipping, a collection of born-digital furniture that announced the arrival of a new mode of practice. With this new presentation at Nilufar Gallery, entitled Odyssey – an allusion back to the historical origins of epic narrative – he extends his reach further still, offering a beguiling and complex interplay of virtual and physical experience.
