Her famous gallery in Milan, Via Bandellois known to offer the visitor the opportunity to discover a range of impressive new names and products that will make the trends of tomorrow. Small selection, but great talents. Husk Mention GERMANS ERMICS Fabulous work of glass by Dutch designer Germans Ermics.

And yet, here is the feat. The 2017 collection of Jorge Penadés Studio includes the Structural Skinlamps, Whose structure is well made of leather, and are available in any color.

MANON PORTERA & CÉCILE-DIAMA SAMBS Both designers are fascinated by polyurethane foam.

Moreover, with Foam Me, they ask the question of the hybrid furniture. Can we attribute several functions to furniture? VINCENT DECHELETTE The small lamp RTB by . Vincent Dechelette is surprising and different from what we perceive at first sight. You think it's light? Its pedestal is nevertheless made of terrazzo. You think it's fragile? Its preformed diffuser is however made of plastic (PET) and whose stark color sublimates the whole lamp, appreciated as much lighted as for the object itself. THEVOZ-CHOQUET Studio Thevoz-Choquet has reinterpreted an object whose shape could quickly become a classic in design: the bike lock. Putting forward the minimalist and functional aesthetics of it, the designers duo rebaptized the series The Locked Objects, allowing him to finally penetrate into a new universe, the one of the interior. SCARLET SPLENDOUR The design editor Scarlet Splendour, for its third participation in the Salone del Mobile, introduced a new collection which includes the very feminine series 88 secrets, with remarkable finishes, designed by Nika Zupanc which was decidedly in the spotlight this year. 88 secrets for the 88 constellations we know... 2017?
