The new Superstudio’s event for the Milan Design Week 2021 at Superstudio Più proposes a true r/evolution of our usual format made by great theatrical installations and it is becoming closer to an art exhibition, rather than a fair. We will use the rigour, the harmony and same museum-like care that has always characterized Superdesign Show, to present a series of collective and individual thematic areas, each of them with one independent and competent curator. Areas about the best of Italian and international production, the trends of living today at home and outside, with a focus on female creativity, young people and icons of the beginning of the third millennium. Prestigious brands, famous architects, successful designers and young talents for a special and unique event.
