The award dedicated to the most memorable events
of the Milan Design Week.
- Vote from April 18, 2023 -
Fuorisalone Award selects and promotes both the most memorable installations showcased in Milan and contents, projects, activities of relevance and interest for the international design community (Special Mentions). The novelty of this edition: the special mention "Light for the city" by Salone del Mobile.Milano.
The award aims to have a strongly democratic value, as it is decreed on the basis of direct public votes, made possible on a dedicated section. The audience, which is large and varied every year, is thus finally invited to vote on the most engaging and exciting installations and events.
The combined work of a technical committee, on the other hand, focuses on contents and projects of relevance to Design, qualitatively innovative and rich in meaning, which compete for special prizes. A section therefore of the Award that aims to raise the issue of Design Culture, which is not necessarily manifested in its physical and aesthetic expression, but in its deeper content, producing value and offering alternative and increasingly innovative visions.
Special Mentions
The work of the Technical Committee, made up of professionals from the sector and jurors, and the editorial staff of Fuorisalone.it
will focus on contents of relevance to the world of the project and design,
qualitatively innovative and rich in meaning.
The Special Mentions support the value of Design Culture, which is not necessarily manifested only in its physical and aesthetic expression,
but also in its deeper content, producing value and offering alternative and increasingly avant-garde visions.
The selected projects will compete for the 4 Special Mentions in the categories:
INTERACTION
Projects that create an immersive experience capable of stimulating
the senses and actively involving the public.
SUSTAINABILITY
Projects that give shape not only to virtuous processes and products with a low environmental impact:
sustainability as a means for imagining new solutions for tomorrow.
TECHNOLOGY
Projects that innovate by restoring a balance between humans and their environment:
the use of technology as a central factor in protecting the planet.
COMMUNICATION
Projects that produce a clear and immediate communication design,
adopting an inclusive language that embraces human diversity.
The special mentions cannot be voted for by the public,
instead will be decided by the jury set up by Fuorisalone.it
