I SALONI 2013 Avant-garde: the contemporary In&Out living

March 26 / 2013

Passionate, cool and utterly stylish – as the country itself – Spain’s design puts no boundaries to creativity, setting trends and breaking grounds with new interior concepts. We invite you to read more about new Spain’s design products on display in the Design Halls in Milan…

The FREESTYLE collection, a design by Josep Turell. for ARLEX

The Spanish avant-garde and contemporary offer on display in Milan at I Saloni features a vast array of great new products that are practical yet decorative and intriguing. Straight-lined or organic shaped, in sleek natural hues and materials or with cutting-edge elements and spots of invigorating colours, Spain’s contemporary furnishing is all about design highly personalized spaces punctuated with unexpected accents.

Innovation in aesthetic solutions and materials comes from a symbiotic collaboration of the Spanish design brands with top-notch national and international designers: Patricia Urquiola, Lievore Altherr Molina, Claesson Koivisto Rune, Jean-Marie Massaud, Karim Rashid, just to name a few.

Outdoor ranges have been improved with new weather-resistant materials and fade-resistant fabrics in order to make it possible to create an open-air oasis for dinner parties, cocktail gatherings and weekend relaxation. On the other hand, many outdoor products allow moving the cozy and attractive atmosphere of a patio inside, under the dining room ceiling, facing a stunning unparallel view on the Mediterranean sea.

So, get creative and add a Spanish take to your interiors…
