5 Vie Art + Design District Preview for Milan Fuorisalone 2019

The very best previews of the Milan Fuorisalone 2019 handpicked by ITALIANBARK

Milan Design Week is just around the corner! The 58th Milan Furniture Fair will surely shine through its mainstay event at Rho Fiera Milano as well as Fuorisalone events. Fuorisalone continues to grow each year across various design districts. Have you already checked out Elisabetta’s article highlighting a preview of Ventura Future? If you liked getting a sample of what’s to come, then you’re in for another treat.

 

5VIE Art + Design District

The original inspiration behind the 1961 launch of Salone del Mobile was to feature exclusively Italian designers. Over the years, the event has expanded and adapted to become a truly international affair.

5VIE Design District has certainly responded to this by dedicating itself to culture, integration, and diversity. This historic and artistic district consists of workshops, galleries, shops, and showrooms. As you may remember from last year, it hosted an amazing array of Italian and international artists and designers.

SIAM was opened in 1878 and has continuously supported the arts and crafts as well as education in industry and innovation. There will be several events hosted at this unique location.
