Isola Design District
“Ocean Drive” by April Key
April Key will present her first lighting collection Ocean Drive, a fusion between Art Deco architecture, lighting and sculptures. The exhibition will host ten of her pieces that are made out of laser cut plexiglass, while the neon pieces are handcrafted by Turkish artisans.
Address: Via Cola Montano 8
Campidarte by Giorgio Deplano
This project’s aim is to create furniture products with a modern and colorful style, which only reveal a more careful look at their composition, given by the reuse of abandoned industrial materials and components.
Address: via De Castillia, 26
DesignByThem
As part of the Milan Design Week 2019, the Australian design house will be showcasing over 30 of their signature pieces as well as the international debut of a new furniture collaboration between DesignByThem founders/designers Sarah Gibson and Nicholas Karlovasitis and Australian fashion designer Dion Lee.
Address: via Cola Montano, 8
Francesco Tramontano
Francesco Tramontano’s golden, silver and brass jewelry are strictly handmade. Every piece, different from the other, wants to tell the story of the Neapolitan and Mediterranean culture.
Address: via Pastrengo, 21
Hartwerp
Hartwerp‘s work goes beyond functionality and should be labeled sculptural work or installation art rather than furniture.
Address: via De Castillia, 26
