As moviemaking is to Los Angeles, so design is to Milan. Homewares and interior fittings are the lifeblood, mythic history, cocktail chatter, and standard billboard fare of Italy’s commercial capital, and never more so than during Salone del Mobile, the mega-function that rolls into town every April.
