The edition just ended had the theme “Connecting Design since 1998”. “Unbelievable, 25 years!” said Marva Griffin Wilshire. “I feel like it was only yesterday that Manlio Armellini – CEO of Cosmit at the time – after our conversations about young designers, entrusted me with the task of organizing an event devoted to them on the trade fair site.” Then there was also the SaloneSatellite Award, which rewards and incentivizes the most deserving designers. The jury of industry experts chaired by Paola Antonelli, Senior Curator at the Department of Architecture and Design of the MoMA (New York), presented the awards to Studio Ololoo, architect Filippo Andrighetto and Egoundesign studio.
