SUMMARY:Salone del Mobile.Milano
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 Salone del Mobile is back as the star of the design calendar: the leading international event for the design industry will be held from 21st to 26th April\, at Milan’s Rho Fiera fairgrounds. Set up in 1961\, the trade fair boasts a wide range of furnishing products\, distinguished by their expressive power and their functional\, technological and material innovation\, devised to enhance the domestic scene. Ingenuity\, vision\, innovation\, sustainable excellence and emotion make up the familiar lexicon of the companies and brands that exhibit at the Salone Internazionale del Mobile\, which has now been proved to be increasingly more global\, inclusive and in dialogue with the entire creative and productive furnishing system. Each year\, the trade fair gives shape to its mission as a laboratory of experimentation and cross-pollination\, a place to meet\, to interface and create new business opportunities. It is here that prototypes and innovations in terms of furnishings\, domestic spaces and lifestyles are presented: bedrooms\, living and dining areas\, entrance corridors and service areas\, outdoor spaces with their furniture and cupboards\, upholstereds\, tables and chairs set the scene for a narrative that starts with this room\, exploring how the way we live is changing and\, consequently\, home living and furnishing. \nLearn more: https://www.salonemilano.it/en
