Launched in Milan in 1961 as a vehicle for promoting Italian exports of furnishing and accessories, the Salone Internazionale del Mobile is the global benchmark event for the furnishing and design sector.
The Salone is held in Milan in April every year, along with the biennial Euroluce exhibition in odd years and EuroCucina and the International Bathroom Exhibition in even years, and in tandem with the annual International Furnishing Accessories Exhibition and Workplace3.0. These events are flanked by FTK (Technology For the Kitchen), EuroCucina’s collateral event and S.Project, the exhibition devoted to design products and decorative and technical furnishing solutions. Since 1998, the trade fair has been rounded off by SaloneSatellite, the launchpad for young designers and a point of reference for companies on the look out for new talent.
The industry’s leading event will be packed with new things again this year. From 16th to 21st April, sectoral companies, buyers, journalists and design lovers will arrange to meet up at Rho Fiera Milano to check out the latest novelties and trends in a sector that is constantly growing and evolving. There will be many new developments, as we said, starting with the visitor paths, designed with a human-centred approach. There will also be lots of new products facing up to the challenges of sustainability and lots of cultural events, installations, talks and round tables to take in.
