Milan has long been a platform for design. The infrastructure and facilities have made the city central to the world of design, graphics, and architecture, and the Milan Furniture Fair and fashion industry have given it a permanent place of prominence on international calendars. Designers, companies, and furniture makers have long been the driving force of a world that must always make itself anew to stay fresh and competitive. The book would like to cover major past events and their connection to Milan while also exploring the current situation and offer thoughts for the future. The volume spotlights the stories of Italian and foreign designers who share having contributed to the Milan design system, which became well established on an international scale over the span of nearly a century. The designers were chosen based on their careers, their connections to Milan for having studied or worked there keeping their international relevance. Interviews and archival material capture an ever-evolving world and portray Milan's international spirit through the voices of those who embody it.
