COUNT-DOWN: -10 DAYS TO SUPERSTUDIO DESIGN WEEK/MUSEI DI CARTA

A great initiative produced by the collaboration between Superstudio Group and Aliantedizioni, offers the Musei di Carta exhibition, a project specially designed for 20 Italian Museums, that will be provided with a customized paper or recycled cardboard object to be sold in their shops. Twenty young designers, led by the master Riccardo Dalisi, have carried out a full-scale prototype, meeting a few essential requisites: the object had to play a real function, show some even remote, subtle or ironic allusions to the associated museum or to its specific artworks, plan energy saving in the prospect of a possible mass production, occupy a limited space in order to be easily carried by the museum's visitors. Among the selected museums there is Superstudio's Temporary Museum for New Design, for which the designer Laura Affinito has created a practical business-card holder. The exhibition is curated by Alessandro Loschiavo, a minimal and transportable installation project designed by Makoto Kawamoto. For further information, please visit the site www.museidicarta.it.
