The SaloneSatellite Award 2018 of Salone Del Mobile.Milano announced the young designers chosen, the future of design

The jury of the SaloneSatellite Award 2018 has selected three projects that stand out because of the message they embody, focusing not just on the formal incisiveness of their design but also their sustainable, communicative, interactive and ludic element, essential for the lives of adults and children now and, hopefully, also in the future. In its ninth edition, these awards are granted within the setting of the Salone Del Mobile.Milano 2018 that is celebrated these days and that ends on April 22.
