The Mirra 2 combines ergonomics and sustainability
Redesigned by Berlin-based Studio 7.5, the Mirra 2 chair from Herman Miller represents the perfect combination of function and innovation.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation presented the itinerant exhibition – through the diplomatic-consular network and the Italian Institutes of Culture – “3CODESIGN. 3 A: reduce recycle reuse”.
The exhibition, curated by our collaborator Silvana Annicchiarico, over the past three years, has already been in Prague, Doha, Shenzhen, Toronto, Washington, Tunis, Pristina, Tallin, Tripoli, Benghazi, Bucharest, and Sofia and now has arrived in Tel Aviv, Israel.
The aim is to give visibility to the new frontiers of Italian design and to keep alive the interest of the world on it, offering a synthetic but paradigmatic overview of how Italian design is moving in sustainable directions, mixing history, research, experimentation, and innovation.
Spread over a space of circa 100/150 square meters, the exhibition offers a selection of objects, products, and furnishings recycled or made with sustainable materials and technologies, designed by Italian designers, industries, and companies.
