Space Furniture is hosting a series of events across Australia in October and November to celebrate B&B Italia’s golden jubilee.
The Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art played hot to B&B Italia and Space Furniture, who celebrated a landmark 50 years of B&B Italia
Design lovers and design royalty enjoyed an evening of cocktails, mingling and a screening of the film B&B Italia. Poetry in the shape. When design meets industry. Following the film, indulged in the views offered by MCA’s Sculpture Terrace, where guests mingled among some of the more iconic pieces from the B&B Italia range, all while enjoying a view of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
On display was the Husk collection by Patricia Urquiola, Naoto Fukasawa’s Papilio series, and the Up series by Gaetano Pesce including the unforgettable red and white striped Big Mama.
The night was a great celebration of design – and a look to the future. So here’s to the next fifty years!
