Che bello! Relive the best of Milan Design Week 2021

Say ciao to Milan Design Week once again. In this multi-part series, Indesign welcomes some of the best in design to centre stage as we unfold the latest product launches of the last year.

Che bello! Relive the best of Milan Design Week 2021

The annual highlight of the design calendar came back this year with a show-stopping makeover. For five days in September, a curated collection of the world’s best designs is brought together under one roof in a new 2021 edition: Supersalone.

Back to its historic home at the Rho Fiera showground, Salone del Mobile has been reimagined, and is back better than ever. Milanese architect, Stefano Boeri, presents the multi-dimensional exhibition in a new, scaled back format within a flexbile, modular wall system by designers Andrea Caputo and Lukas Wegwerth. Redesigned to adapt to the world’s new normal, the new exhibit allowed renowned brands including Cosh Living, Cosentino, Great Dane, Ownworld and Zenith Interiors to showcase the best and latest launches from the past year.

Here, we step steps into the magic of Salone del Mobile 2021 where we marvel at the resilience and talent of design masters from across the globe. Join us as we celebrate noteworthy brands, and uncover the latest talent and product innovations.
