“Less Fair, More Museum” at Milan Design Week is not to be missed.
With a SuperStudio theme of Innovation & Tradition, this year’s SuperDesign Show celebrates contradictions. At the Superstudio Piu in the Central pavilion, white and black paths resemble city streets while reflecting on interdependence and community, a Yin and Yang philosophy also evoked by some exhibitors in the different areas.
