Project NameBEST OF MILAN DESIGN WEEK 2015Posted inDesign, Art

A week after the end of MILAN DESIGN WEEK, we’re ready to share a selection of projects, products, artworks and exhibitions that caught Yatzer's eye between the 14 and 19 of April 2015, some of which will be still running during Expo Milano 2015, the International Exhibition which will be hosted in Italy’s design and commerce capital from May 1 to October 31, 2015.

For the second year in a row, the usual design districts (TortonaLambrateBrera and the sprawling RHO Fiera with its endless halls of Salone Internazionale del Mobile) were joined by the new 5VIE district, with paths that incorporated beautiful shops, archaeological finds and courtyards in historical buildings and the ‘Exercises in seating’ exhibition dedicated to the work of the British designer/sculptor Max Lamb organised by Federica Sala.

9 April – 23 August 2015 curated by Vicente Todolí.

The ‘ENERGY FOR CREATIVITY’ exhibition/event, organised by INTERNI magazine in the Università degli Studi of Milan and the Brera Orto Botanico, is a must-see if you’re passing through Milan till the end of October; the exhibition includes the amazing installation ‘Punti di Vista’ by Piuarch Studio, which in the studio’s very own words, ''stimulates thinking on the architectural characteristics of the context, starting with vantage points: the classical elements of the architecture of the ca’ Granda, in particular the frieze, the column and the arch, are broken down into pure geometric forms from which to make a new architectural volume organized in three shapes, produced by the extrusion, reflection and overturning of a square, a triangle and a circle.''

Meanwhile, at Hangar Bicocca, located a distance of a few kilometres from the city centre, the exhibition ‘‘Double Bind & Around’’ curated by Vicente Todolí will continue retracing the career of Spanish sculptor Juan Muñoz through fifteen of his most significant installations till the 23d of August 2015. The works on show also include the ‘Double Bind’ structure, originally presented in 2001 at Tate Modern in London; maintaining the elements and proportions of the original project, this is the first time that it has been reconstructed in over 14 years at another location.
