After my morning visit to the SaloneSatellite, next stop was the bigger-than-Ben-Hur Salone del Mobile. Holy moly, my poor little feet were already sore after all the walking. This year marked 50 years of I Saloni which has grown significantly since it’s humble beginnings. In case you are interested, in 1961 the fair welcomed 12,000 visitors to a 11,000 square metres of display space and 328 exhibitors. This year, the fair received over 300,000 visitors to over 200,000 sqm of display space and over 2,500 exhibitors. EPIC!

These photos were taken across 4 different halls which housed all the major brands. This year’s most talked about stand was definitely Kartell, and it just so happened to be the very first one I saw at the fair. Half my luck hey, as everything was downhill from there… Kidding!
