We received our first batch of images from Milan prior to the start of the show. These photos are of events, installations, and showrooms located around Milan.
Not all the brands show right in the Fiera Milano fair grounds. Some of the brand showrooms are almost as large as ours here in Vancouver.
New from B&B Italia, Established & Sons x Venini, and Cassina.

Wild man, free spirit, just plain crazy, call him what you will, we think he’s genius!
All of his designs are consistent in their eccentricities, you may chuckle when seeing them for the first time but you will always walk away with a little more respect for Mr. Starck. Often copied, never duplicated, Starck pieces speak volumes of the designer’s lust for life and devout passion for aesthetics and function.
Starck was born in Paris on January 18, 1949. He studied at École Nissim de Camondo and opened his first design firm, specializing in inflatable products, in 1968. Starck’s vast repertoire includes commercial and residential interiors, watches, toothbrushes, electronic devices, lighting, and furniture, to name a few.

Long awaited, CASSINA has finally arrived at Inform Interiors.
Striving to offer the best in contemporary furniture, we work to present collections with true design merit. Few companies come close to showcasing such a strong product collection and design history as Cassina.
First established in Meda (Milano) 1927, they are the authorized producers of timeless Masters such as Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Gerrit Rietveld; Cassina continues to add beautiful new pieces to their already impressive selection by renewing their line with edgy works by provocateur Philippe Starck and the clean minimal lines of Piero Lissoni. The factories of Cassina are hard at work creating immaculate products for commercial and residential projects.
