Milan is getting ready to host Milano Design Week, the event that has turned the city into the world capital of design, together with the ever-present Fuorisalone. Among the most awaited protagonists, as every year, the Tortona Design Week is back from 6 to 12 June.
The core of this edition will be the Fluidity and Design project, a concept with which Torneria Tortona and Tortona Locations - the promoters and organisers of the event - confirm the path taken in recent years to interpret design as a collector of cultural and sociological transformation, sensitive to the changing conditions of modern life, respectful of the differences and new instances that have suddenly and powerfully emerged both nationally and internationally.
SUBARU sponsors Tortona Design Week 2022 and will be presenting its installation "SUBARU PEACE OF MIND LOUNGE" in Via Tortona at Largo delle Culture.
