OPENING TO NATURE - Innovation/Imagination April 12th-17th

In the wide spaces of via Tortona 54(Face to Superstudio Più), behind which there is still the swarming site of the Museum of Cultures designed by David Chipperfield, Innovation/Imagination opens its doors under the mark of naturalness.
Already in the reception area, a big gazebo, weaved with a material coming from far away, from somewhere poles apart from our civilization, linking the local linen with vegetable plastic, and a new series of lamps of every size are presented by the New Zealand designer David Trubridge under the wise mark of Tipu, the Maori word for blossoming, growing, increasing, developing.
Trubdrige works on his "organic", basic, eco-friendly, self-made design, allowing each one to assemble his huge balloon of light and transparency simply by joining with a click small natural strips until the desired shape is obtained.
