Intensions Behind Milan

Intensions Behind Milan

In one week I will be flying down and going to the Milan Furniture Fair. With over 400 designers and firms attending, I’m a bit overwhelmed but extremely excited. The truth is I don’t study designers, only their creations, and if asked who made what, I would not be able to tell you… This soon will change!

Preparing for this fair has not been easy, since the entire fair is not held solely in one location but scattered over some 475 different buildings, galleries, backyards, not to mention one really enormous convention center. Next week Milan will be taken over by designer and their designs.

Aside from the light project we did the summer of our pre junior year, I have never done anything furniture. Since I’m going to miss out on the chair project that we do the summer of our junior year, I see landing a job in the furniture field as a good opportunity to get my feet wet. If all goes well, I will meet some designers showcasing their stuff, and set up a job for the fall. If all really goes well this could be my opportunity to actually create a chair/furniture, versus, spend a lot at school for a one off design.
