PRADA FRAMES
Being Home
Bagatti Valsecchi Museum – April 14, 15 and 16 2024
Prada Frames, the annual multidisciplinary symposium held in parallel with Milan’s Salone del Mobile, is back for 2024. Now in its third year, the multi-day program delves into the complex relationship between the natural environment and design. The symposium, curated by the design and research studio Formafantasma, includes contributions from numerous scholars and professionals from diverse research areas.
Entitled Being Home, this year’s event looks at the living environment as a framework to address contemporary challenges. The home is no longer merely a source of comfort; it acts as a shelter and an infrastructure of services. This constantly evolving, dynamic space is where the socio-economic norms that underpin communities have historically taken shape.
Admission to Prada Frames Being Home is complimentary, based on availability, upon registration at prada-frames.com.
