architecture connects with the salone del mobile 2016 through a major event that focuses its attention on the latest trends in finishings for the planning, building and construction industry. conceived by MADE expo and developed especially for presentation during milan design week, the ‘space&interiors’ exhibition explores the narrative interface between a variety of innovative materials and leading-edge architectural components, including: arbours, cladding, curtains, decoration, doors, finishes, floors, gazebos, glass, handles, home automation and entertainment, lighting, paint, stairs, surfaces, wall fittings, windows; offering a selection the most significant products currently being manufactured by a list of specialized companies.

the exhibition is organized around a central promenade, with displays and booths situated on either side

curated by migliore+servetto architects, the design of ‘space&interiors’ leverages a new map of living, a ‘manifesto of architecture’ within which materials and ideas are combined to bring forth an opportunity to read and interpret the latest trends in interior design. ‘the system of relationships between components within the architectural space not only determines the overall quality of a design, it helps create an ideal abacus of contemporary construction that visitors to space&interiors get to discover in advance,’ says ico migliore.

‘space&interiors’ is set to put forward a unique, multisensory and immersive experience for visitors

a collateral exhibition organized by migliore+servetto architects called ‘the new components code’ will provide a sensitive interpretation of solutions presented by exhibitors, thanks to the unique way in which products are placed in harmony with their commercial setting. the overall exposition space which features a central promenade at its centre, surrounded by stands and booths, has been developed along a double theme: commercial on one hand, with an in-depth interpretation of the products on show; and analytical on the other — making direct comparisons between the two.
