“Sleeping with design”: creating, showing, and sleeping during the Design Week

Finding an accommodation during the Milan Design Week might become an extreme sport. Especially for young people, hotel and rent prices are often unaffordable as, according to the numbers, the average price of accommodations doubles compared to the rest of the year.

The initiative “Sleeping with design” tries to solve this problem offering for 10 days all that a young designer can dreamt of: a space to create, an exhibition area, a bed. Indeed, the Makers Hub in via Enrico Cosenz, in the Bovisa area, from 1st to 10th April will see the birth of a Design Hostel where to live, but also to create and show, at a definitely competitive price.

Registration will be open to all designers, of any age and origin, until 5th March. A scientific committee will then select forty lucky ones.
The announcement and all related details are available at http://www.designhostel.it.
