At the Milano Design Week 2019 it goes beyond the boundaries of Contract

At the Milan Design Week 2019, Lambrate Design District explores unprecedented potential and goes beyond the traditional boundaries of the Contract that will be told in a modern, sometimes futuristic, through a series of events, exhibitions and installations spread over 13,000 square meters of exhibition space.

With more than 85,000 visitors in the 2018 edition, Lambrate Design District further strengthens its relationship with the indigenous companies and responds to the many requests for Italian and international new entries. The aim of Lambrate Design District for the 2019 Design Week is to consolidate its leadership for innovation and avant-garde and to amplify the real meeting between supply and demand through the involvement of strategic international players that will promote moments of contact, exchange and comparison (conferences and workshops) among designers, companies and entrepreneurs. In addition, for the second consecutive year the call for entries of the Codega Awards 2019 - International Design Prize has been confirmed, an award dedicated to solutions and achievements of excellence in lighting, a reference appointment for the world of lighting design with the participation of important international design studios from all over the world.

The flow of visitors will therefore intertwine with entrepreneurship, thus generating an extensive commercial and communication network with an international dimension.
