This week on Dezeen, Salone del Mobile revealed its plans for an "unmissable" edition of the furniture fair called Supersalone curated by architect Stefano Boeri.
Dezeen teamed up with Boeri and Salone del Mobile to live stream the press conference in which plans for the fair, which has been rebranded "Supersalone", were announced.
The fair, which has been moved to September this year due to the coronavirus pndemic, will be fully open to the public for the first time. Visitors will also be able to buy the pieces on show by scanning QR codes for the products, which will be mounted on parallel walls designed by architect Andrea Caputo.
Dezeen's editor in chief Marcus Fairs also interviewed Boeri about his vision for the fair. "I believe that this will be a way to take a risk in the right direction and demonstrate that the Salone is alive, that Milan is alive and that generally, our field is still dynamic and open to new conditions," the architect said.
