Posted in Events_Interviews - Milano by * FORMAKERS

Its creation was essentially a declaration of faith in the creative potential of designers under 35. Many of the prototypes presented in the previous editions have gone into production, and many of the 10,000 designers who have taken part over the years, along with 270 international design schools, are now big names on the design scene.

Indeed, SaloneSatellite’s challenge has always been to imagine the shape of design to come and to try and imagine how future generations will forge a new, perfect balance between project, function and beauty. Started in 2010, the SaloneSatellite Award is a further opportunity to facilitate contact between young designers and businesses. 10th edition for theSaloneSatellite Award competition.

This edition has featured two new Rong Design Library Awards; the idea for the library came from Zhang Lei, Jovana Zhang and Christoph John (winner of the 13th SaloneSatellite Design Report Award in 2012 with the PINWU Design studio) in collaboration with the government of Yuhang district in Hangzhou, for the purposes of studying traditional Chinese craft materials and craftsmanship.
