20 YEARS OF NEW CREATIVITY
THE CATALOGUE IS OUT NOW ! | SALONE SATELLITE | 20 YEARS OF NEW CREATIVITY
THE CATALOGUE, BY BEPPE FINESSI DESIGNED BY LEONARDO SONNOLI, IS ORGANIZED AS A CREDIBLE DICTIONARY OF CONTEMPORARY 20 YEARS OF CREATIVITY. 500 DESIGNERS AND 1500 PROJECTS.
"AMONG THE INTERNATIONAL DESIGNERS AT THE HEIGHT OF THEIR SUCCESS TODAY, MANY BEGAN THEIR CAREERS ABOUT TWENTY YEARS AGO. AND MANY MADE THEIR DEBUT AT THE SALONESATELLITE. OVER THE YEARS, FROM MATALI CRASSET TO SATYENDRA PAKHALÉ, LLKKA SUPPANEN TO NENDO, MATTEO BAZZICALUPO AND RAFFAELLA MANGIAROTTI OF DEEPDESIGN, ALL OF THEM HAVE BEEN SELECTED AND DISCOVERED BY THE GREAT DESIGN GODMOTHER, MARVA GRIFFIN. THE IDEA WAS AS SIMPLE AS IT WAS REVOLUTIONARY: TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE AUDIENCE OF JOURNALISTS, DEALERS, CURATORS AND ENTREPRENEURS THAT FLOCK TO THE SALONE DEL MOBILE, TO GIVE YOUNG DESIGNERS OF OUTSTANDING TALENT A SHOWCASE THAT COULD MAKE A CAREER HAPPEN – AND TO GIVE THE WORLD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY THEIR PASSION AND IMAGINATION. AFTER TWENTY YEARS THE SATELLITE IS STILL ON ITS VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY, FINDING NEW PLANETS AND NEW MOONS EVERY YEAR. AII INTENSELY HABITABLE!"
