Supersalone: The Grand Return of the Salone Del Mobile

Avatar photo

Design aficianados rejoice: the world’s largest furniture and design fair is back. After a regrettable cancellation last year, the Salone del Mobile has made a grand return under the fittingly momentous title ‘Supersalone’, once again igniting Italy’s design and fashion capital Milan with a sensational display of thousands of the country’s top designers, from the prestigious to the up-and-coming.

Since 1961, the Salone del Mobile has provided a platform for companies to present their most beguiling, innovative, and skilful creations in the realm of furniture and interior design. This is where the trends of the year emerge in magnificent exhibitions and showrooms alongside live events and discussions. This year curator was architect Stefano Boeri, with sustainability being central topic, with all installations recycled at the conclusion of the fair.

From the milieu of brilliant pieces showcased this year, we picked out a couple of our favourites to bring you a taste of this special comeback.

Designed in 1954, the Round D.154.5 marked a turning point in the modern furniture design of legendary Milanese architect Gio Ponti, titled after its rounded seat that earned the nickname the ‘soap bar’. Using drawings, photos and period materials, Molteni&C has revived this timeless classic that remains boldly modern, even six decades after its first presentation at the 1957 Milan Triennale.
