As part of the Ventura Future group exhibition, selected Slovenian designers and independent furniture manufacturers will present themselves at this year's Milan Design Week, during the 58th Milan furniture fair Salone del Mobile.
Exhibition titled We are open!, which will be on display from April 9 to 14 in the Tortona area, includes some of the freshest and highest quality products of modern Slovenian design. They inspired the conceptual title the language and culture of sales and marketing, advertising, consumerism, trade and shopping, as well as the orientation of the larger design and production efforts that they present here.
The exhibition puts designers and the companies associated with them in the foreground. Some of them have already built a reputation in their homeland, but in most cases it is brands and companies that are still looking for their place in the wider international environment. Several products have been included in the exhibition that have not been presented in Milan until now - all of them boast a distinctly individual, innovative design that testifies to the lively spirit of the time and place.
The following designers and brands will be presented:
