Ever since my first time at I Saloni one year ago, Milan has been at the centre of my design radar like never before. It’s hard to describe but, the travails and pleasures of the city in design week (seriously silly hotel bills, sardine style tube rides and a drenching last day of rain included) seem to have morphed into an unswerving loyalty to Italy’s second biggest metropolis. I feel like I’ve joined a very special club.
Milan design week 2009 starts today and I wish with all my heart I were there. To those of you who can be, enjoy, appreciate - and don’t forget to pack your umbrella.
