Our cover features the renowned Italian furniture brand Porro, which is gearing up to mark its 100th anniversary next year. The brand is one of the recent additions this year to Casamia’s growing brand portfolio which now carries over 200 brands. The company continues to support the region’s growing skylines through branded development partnerships with brands such as Versace Ceramics.
Cultural immersion takes centre stage in our global outlook, with features on Neri&Hu’s striking design for the New Bund 31 Performing Arts Center in Shanghai and the serene Maana Homes in Kyoto.
Our design focus turns to bathroom innovation, where we explore the brands leading the charge in sustainability, design, and cutting-edge aesthetics.
We also shine a spotlight on the extraordinary talents and projects that we will be celebrating on the 15th of November during the identity Design Awards.
