Milan Furniture Fair
From 16th to 21st April, leading interior designers commune in Milan for the world’s most exciting design event – the Milan Furniture Fair.
Showcasing spectacular products from renowned brands such as Flexform, Ligne Roset and Fendi, the 47th annual Fair offers a tantalising insight into the interiors of the future.
The Milan Furniture Fair – or ‘I Saloni’ in Italian - also reveals the freshest interior design talent in its Satellite Salon.
From kitchenware, to sofas, to lighting - all the big launches in interior design are revealed at this prestigious event, and with so many smaller companies nipping at the industry-leaders’ heels for hints to this year’s hot trends, the content of the fair is kept well under-wraps for the entirety of the event.
