Ode to a Seigneur, Gaetano Pesce, to his colourful carrier, always against the good taste and whose death left a great emptiness. This Radical member, appreciating a form of over as a principle, is celebrated by Meritalia with his nomadic units, LaMichetta, (from 2005), with capitons, indeed, but in an irregular presence. Alessandro Mendini also stand in, whose exhibition at Triennale started with the Salone, full of happy drawings. Stilemi, his line of stools « di tutti colori », aligned in horizontal or in vertical are a tribute from Caimi. Opinion Ciatti’s entire stand gives the idea of a vivid museum, joyfully mixing classics and novelties.

A range of open storage units in laminated glass, with an opaque mirror surface, here Obliquo is the unconventional idea from Piero Lissoni for Glas Italia. And it works! The reenchanting office style La Palma shows a prototype created by Mangiarotti for the scenography of the stand. We bet it would do so well on the market… We will see.
