The three days of design at the Salone del Mobile.Milano Shanghai consists of a journey into the “Italian savoir-faire”, with two-thirds of companies in the Design category (products that encapsulate functionality, innovation and a clear stylistic hallmark) and one-third brands in the xLux category (products that are a balance of classical elegance and modern appeal).

The talent-promoting space, SaloneSatellite Shanghai, is back for the fourth time: 53 young designers and students from the leading universities and design schools are showcasing projects that blend meaning, innovation, form and function in a reflection on a future that poses huge challenges such as recycling, the responsible and alternative use of materials and technological research.

SaloneSatellite is being driven by the theme that shaped the Milan edition: FOOD as a DESIGN OBJECT. As part of the SaloneSatellite Shanghai Award, a sector-wide jury of professionals will select the top 4 projects, whose designers will be invited to SaloneSatellite 2020.

“We have worked hard to ensure the involvement of brands best able to represent the processes of innovation and research that underpin our manufacturing and, especially, on identifying high profile interlocutors, visitors and buyers capable of understanding the intrinsic values of a vision that does not simply stop at the product and is suggestive of a particular lifestyle. The historic spaces of the SEC, beautiful and representative, are ideally suited to showing off our designs to the very best.”
