Identifying emerging design talent

April 22nd, 2009 by News

We are losing some of the IN editorial team next week - they’re going on a selfless mission to Milano for the annual Salone Internazionale del Mobile furniture fair. Although we love posh tables, what we really love the growing list of cultural events that comprise the fair fringe - including new work by Cerith Wynn Evans

SalonSatellite promises to bring together emerging young designers with trend scouts and the established elite of the design world. Not dissimilar to a competiton that runs annually here in the UK, called RELEASEONEDOTZERO that looks for up-and-coming designers to create merchandise for museums and galleries. See here for details of last year’s competition. One of last year’s judges was Ambra Medda, director of Design Miami, profiled in The New York Time’s excellent new supplement T Magazine.

More details on this coming soon.
