Join us at Milan Design Week 2025 for an exclusive breakfast event in the heart of historic Brera with lighting experts, iGuzzini.
March 10th, 2025
It’s that time of year again – perhaps the most exciting time for the global design community, as Milan Design Week appears on the horizon! Salone del Mobile is set to take over the northern Italian city during the week of 7-11th April, and of course our team will be there on the ground the whole way. We’ll be reporting back on all the news, products and standout installations as well as meeting and interviewing designers from across the world. Stay tuned to both Habitus and Indesign Instagram channels in particular, where we will be creating a daily report on the highlights from Europe.
This year, Habitus and Indesign are teaming up with esteemed lighting brand, iGuzzini, to put on a very special event. Centring on a panel discussion and set within iGuzzini’s charming showroom in the historic Brera quarter of Milan, the event will be a focal point for the Antipodean design community in particular to gather and take stock of things halfway through the week.

Shaping Spaces from Home to Hospitality: A Lighting Dialogue in Milan is set to take place from 10am on Wednesday 9th April at iGuzzini, Via Brera 5. RSVP here!
With delicious food and great coffee, the event is designed to kickstart the day in Milan. Timothy Alouani-Roby, Editor of Habitusliving and Indesignlive, will lead a lively discussion on how today’s leading designers are drawing inspiration from the latest refinements across hospitality design in the houses they craft. Excitingly, there will then be a special feature on the remarkable restoration of Ca’ da Mosto, a palazzo with over a thousand years of history. With guidance from the experts at iGuzzini, it’s now transformed into the beautiful Venice Venice Hotel.
