At the new fairgrounds and buildings in Rho-Pero, designed by Massimiliano Fuksas, in showrooms within the city, at private parties leading up to opening day, and at off-site events in the grungy Tortona design district during I Saloni, spectators got a clear view of what’s to come in furniture, kitchen and bath design stores this fall.
