Salone Milan 2013
Dedece’s Big Review @ Salone Milan 2013
“Dominant, important, determinant, no frills, no stains, no tyre kickers, a time of action, a time for realism, pragmatic stands, open markets, different languages, evolved styles, decisive lines, attentive brands, poetry here and there, history everywhere, attention to the customer, attention to detail, lots of people, important signal, classic, yet shimmering, shifting “. ……….

In the Key of Colour ( Pt 3/3 ) @ Salone Milan 2013
The magic of Chiostri dell’Umanitaria was again the setting, during Milan design week, for the new collection by Paola Lenti.

Minotti – The Event @ Salone Milan 2013
The highlight of Minotti’s presence at the Salone 2013 was not at Rho Fairgrounds where the public could attend, but back at Minotti’s impressive HQ ( factory & trade showroom ) in Meda, a short bus ride just outside of Milan
There a second stunning showroom presentation awaited the invited special international guests
It’s like putting ham and cheese, between two slices of bread and calling it a design sandwich !

Fondazione Franco Albini (1905-1977) @ Salone Milan 2013
One of the fathers of Italian Rationalism – Franco Albini’s original studio ( in the last years of his career) now a museum and historical archive, was opened to Salone visitors.
