Salone Del Mobile 2006 - Detailed Presentation in Corriere della Sera

If you are eager (like me) to see what is happening this week at the grounds of Milan Furniture Faire, go to Corriere della Sera - Cronache - a detailed presentation of almost all important participants is available; or have a look at the images below that I have chosen :


This is the Shift Library by Patricia Urquiola


and the sofa for B&B by Nasuto Fukasawa








The carpet seems to have a central role at Milan











Tom Dixon's chare reminds me of a bird's cage. I doubt that one can feel comfortable there.

INTERNI - Designers' Houses

I have always been curious to see how the famous designers' own houses look. In its April issue INTERNI Magazine presents PDF of articles on designers Carlo Colombo, Fabio Novembre, Gaetano Pesce and Stefano Giovannoni own houses. Have a look!

Винаги е интересно да погледнеш в къщите на известните дизайнери. Сп. INTERNI публикува в априлския си брой статии за къщите на дизайнерите Carlo Colombo, Fabio Novembre, Gaetano Pesce и Stefano Giovannoni. Можете да ги разгледате подробно тук.













INTERNI: "Giovannoni Building" - това е тераса/градина на покрива



Fabio Novembre's Garden of Eden - наречена е така заради мотивите, използвани в мозаечните пана и цялостния декор на къщата.
