MoscaPartners | Design Variations 2021 | Milano Design Week 2021
MOSCAPARTNERS LAUNCHES #design VARIATIONS 2021 AT PALAZZO LITTA DURING MILAN #design WEEK FROM 4th to 10th SEPTEMBER. IN THE MAIN COURTYARD THE SITE-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION BEACH IN THE BAROQUE DESIGNED BY THE STUDIO AIRES MATEUS CELEBRATES SOCIALISATION AND THE COMING TOGETHER OF #people.
During the next edition of Milan #design Week, from 4th to 10th September, #moscapartners will
present #design Variations 2021 inviting important designers, institutions and companies to celebrate international #design inside the historic Palazzo Litta in the heart of Milan.
Once again the Main Courtyard of the palazzo will be transformed by an international architectural studio that has been invited to challenge solemnity of the location with new reflections and #design solutions.
“We have confirmed Studio Aires Mateus that last year was unable to bring to life the installation
that, through a large pool of water covering the entire surface of the Main Courtyard in stark
contrast with the busy city around it, expressed the need for a quieter world. After a year and a half
of ‘forced silence’ we asked the studio to create a place to encourage socialising and coming together.” say #caterinamosca and #valeriocastelli, founders of #moscapartners.
Surrounded by the rigorous architecture of Palazzo Litta, the Main Courtyard will host the temporary installation A beach in the Baroque designed by the Portuguese studio with the clear aim of celebrating the reunification of #people after the isolation of the pandemic. The project underlines both the need for a renewed state of cohesion and the need to simply have some fun through the playful juxtapositioning of the installation with the surroundings such as the obviously temporary pop-up nature of the site-specific work in contrast with the permanence of the Courtyard and the palazzo, the visual levity of the exhibit in contrast with the cultural formality of the location, the bright colours in contrast with the sobriety of the architectural materials. Together the diverse elements openly confront each another, giving a vision that is both metaphysical and culturally significant.
After the Main Courtyard #design Variations 2021 continues through the Copper Room, up the majestic staircase and into the historic grand salons of the first floor featuring the works of a selection of companies, designers, #design schools and institutions from around the world.
Confirmed participants include: Mircea Anghel (Portugal), Emmanuel Babled (Portugal), East China Normal University (China), Edelgrund (Germany), Dejana Kabiljo (Austria), Korea Craft and #design Foundation (South Korea), Supermama (Singapore), Wogg (Switzerland), Orografie (Italy), Casarialto Atelier (Italy) and Tensoforma (Italy).
From 4th to 10th September 2021, on #moscapartners.it, it will also be possible to take the Design
Variations 2021 virtual tour which will be full of information and insights to help visitors discover the show at any time and from anywhere.
