Here we’re.
The Milano Design Week 2022 is starting and we expect seven days full of events, exhibitions and artworks around the city.
Along with the Salone del Mobile held in the Rho Fiera Milano, the city will be filled with colors, shapes and fragrances thanks to the FuoriSalone.
Nature is a major focus topic this year and we have selected some of the most interesting exhibitions around flowers and nature from whom to get inspired during the “Between space and time” theme launched by the FuoriSalone.
