Milan Design Week 2023

Colour Trendspotting

The Dulux colour team is in Italy as part of their year-round research into the latest global and local trends that are predicted to influence Australian design and how we live.

Oh, how we’ve missed you Milano!

Milan Design Week Furniture Fair is the launchpad of design and innovation in the world, showcasing the latest in colour and design trends that will influence the built environment in the continued design cycle.

Day Six

Louis Vuitton, La Manufacture, Elle Décor, Moooi, Campo Base, Acerbis, Archiproducts

Today was the final day for the Dulux Colour Team to be immersed in all things colour and design in Milan! Here are a few of our highlights.

La Manufacture

La Manufacture featured its new collections in seven curated rooms in the stunning Casa Manzoni with each space united by a reference to nature and its elements.

Moooi

Dutch furniture, interior, and lighting design company Moooi provided a fully immersive experience with its installation – A Life Extraordinary.

Day Five

Salone Del Mobile (Milan Design Fair)

Today the Dulux Colour Team embarked upon Salone Del Mobile – the largest trade fair of its kind in the world. The exhibition showcases the latest in furniture and design from countries around the world. This year was the return of Euroluce, the event dedicated to lighting design, which was back after a four-year hiatus.

Salone Del Mobile features global furniture, design and lighting brands such as Molteni&C, Kartell, Baxter, Flexform, Miniforms, Arper, Sancal, Edra, Arflex, Glas Italia, Magis, Gessi, to name a few!

Kartell installation

One of our favourites was the colourful Kartell installation – a beautiful engaging experience where the coloured walls were woven from yellow greens right through to warm pink-browns.

Day Four

Nilufar Gallery, Paola Lenti, Fferrone, Isola Design Gallery, Clay Court Club by Cristina Celestino, Spazia, Hermès, Marset, Dimore Gallery, Muuto, Missoni

Another huge day on the ground for the Dulux Colour Team at Milan Design Week. Day 4 was a mix of visits to design heavyweights such as Hermès, Missoni and Dimore, and creative newcomers like those featured at the Isola Design Gallery.

We loved the work of Nina Yashar, founder of Nilufar Gallery, who presented The Bright Side of Design a seamlessly blended dialogue between research on old masters and the discovery of contemporary creators.

Scandinavian design company, Muuto joined forces with H+O and Vzug to create a distinctive installation exploring the concept of the Butterfly Effect. Sharing a passion for colour, form and tactility – they investigate how this impacts our perception of a space.

Bright Side of Design at Nilufar Gallery

Nilufar Gallery took us on a journey that put the spotlight on all that design has to offer and continues to create. We fell in love with the restful and elegant spaces featuring beautiful colour combinations and exquisite design and art pieces.

Sharing a passion for colour, form and tactility

The Muuto, H+O and Vzug exhibition was described as “a physical manifestation of the profound effect seemingly small changes in our immediate environment can have on everyday life and our sense of wellbeing”.

Day Three

Gubi, Alcova, Gallery Philia, Shaped By Water by Google, Loewe, Cappellini, Cassina, Marimekko

Day three of the Milan Design Fair was an incredibly immersive experience of colour, pattern and texture.

Gubi

The public bathing pool set the scene for the Gubi installation Beyond the Beetle in which visitors wove their way around an array of stunning spaces featuring neutral and natural colourways with layered textures intermingled with stripes.

A colour-lovers dream!

The Cassina showroom, Durini, was a feast of colour and interesting and unexpected colour combinations. Hot pinks were paired with chocolate brown and soft aqua, soft mid-blues were teamed with red, and rust that highlighted rich deep blues.

Day Two

cc-tapis, Cassina, COR, Ross Gardam, Artemest at 5 Vie

Colourful furniture and design inspiration were the hallmarks of day two for the Dulux Colour Team at the Milan Design Fair.

cc-tapis

The Dulux Colour Team started the day with a visit to cc-tapis, an Italian design company that produces contemporary handmade rugs for residential and contract spaces. The Guadalupe Collection by renowned designer Bethan Laura Wood, featured colourful rugs inspired by her archive of ‘public patterns’ collected during her extensive travels. Her designs inspired us with unique combinations of colours and patterns. We also loved seeing all the rich, warm colours including pinks, buttery golds and plums.

Get the look with Dulux Diva Rouge here

Diva Rouge is a soft blush that can be used as a main wall colour such as in a bedroom or as a cheerful accent colour on a front door. It works well with warm sandy neutrals or deeper shades of orange and terracotta.

Artemest

Artemest, the online destination for contemporary Italian craftsmanship and design, is a 1930s Milanese apartment curated by six prestigious international design firms. The unique location provided the perfect backdrop for interior designers to showcase their distinctive creative visions, with each studio designing its own room in the apartment. The dining space was captivating in a cream and soft yellow tan painted stripes by designer Nina Magon Studio.

Day One

Rosanna Orlandi Gallery; Magenta District, Bocci; Zona Vincenzo Monti

It's day one and we’ve hit the ground running at Milan Design Week, which started with a bang on April 17. Today the Dulux Colour Team was given the chance to preview the iconic Rosanna Orlandi Gallery and Bocci installation.

Rosanna Orlandi is a destination for new artists and designers. She has the power to recognise exceptional talent and curate their work as a collective experience.

Bocci recently restored an early 20th-century Milanese apartment in an intimate residential setting showcasing incredible lighting with shapes and designs representing oceanic natural forms. The rich walnut timber featured in the furniture from the Irish brand Orior complimented the materials in the handblown glass.

Bocci apartment

The Bocci apartment featured beautiful lighting displays in organic shapes and forms. A navy blue sofa by e15 was highlighted by a warm white backdrop.
