Virtual Design Variations by MoscaPartners

Virtual Design Variations is a project that stems from the desire to continue offering the quality content of a collective of companies and designers whose work has been shown in the halls of the historic location Palazzo Litta, contributing to the international prestige of Milan Design Week over the years.

A new channel of communication for companies, institutions and designers, a bridge towards 2021, looking to the future when once again the exhibition will be able to take on its physical form in the city against the magnificent backdrop of Palazzo Litta and other Milanese locations. When that time comes it will also be possible to enjoy the site-specific installation of Aires Mateus, previewed here through renderings of the project.

Virtual Design Variations offers a virtual stage for the presentation of concepts, products, material innovation, research, and workshops. It is also accessible on the dedicated platform www.designvariationsvirtual.it, which is constantly updated.
