How can we still save the world? From the viewpoint of architect and designer Michele De Lucchi, to this end we need a more productive and sustainable form of interacting. In Milan he gives us an insight into his work, his convictions and his office.

How are kitchens changing in the digital age? Are they being reduced to a few items of furniture or expanding into new spatial concepts? The showrooms and trade-fair booths in Milan offered visionary examples and real concept ideas.

Whether proudly presenting or skillfully concealing their contents, the new bureaus, sideboards and shelf units at the Milan Furniture Fair deserve our complete attention.

Off we go! Take a walk with us through trade-fair fairyland, catch the mood at the one or other booth and a glimpse of the novelties at this year’s Salone del Mobile.

Phones, speakers, headphones, vacuum cleaners: Cordless devices are gradually taking over our daily lives. And now we’re seeing portable luminaires too. We present the most exciting models.
