Ladies&Gentlemen

Curated by Secondome and PS, the second “Ladies&Gentlemen” is once again an interesting show of designers and companies. Do not miss Apparatu’s research into Dekton by Cosentino. #MDW2017

If the location works, don’t change it. For the second year running, a whole floor of the captivating venue at Via Cesare Correnti 14 is hosting a large collective exhibition of designers and companies. This year’s “Ladies&Gentlemen” is curated by PS and Claudia Pignatale of Rome gallery Secondome.

Several interesting projects are secreted away in the old slightly faded rooms and long hallways of the house overlooking a lovely “old Milan” courtyard. They include research by Apparatu (alias Xavier Mañosa) into Dekton. Artisanally working Cosentino ’s super-technological material, a combination of 20+ minerals, Mañosa has created a functioning kitchen prototype entirely out of Dektonclay, an extruded lamp and a set of vases.
