The work of Bethan Laura Wood will be presented in the main room of the Via Pontaccio 8/10 showroom: a textile and furniture project inspired by her personal discovery of the Mexican culture in the ‘70s. The title – MONO MANIA MEXICO – underlines her splendid obsession. On the second floor of the showroom, TAPESTRY, a gallery of designer tapestries by Tord Boontje, Gabriella Giandelli, Front and Alessandro Paderni, celebrates the return of a forgotten medium. And if that wasn’t enough, Moroso will also be presenting an exhibition space at the fair, once more designed by Patricia Urquiola which will be displaying products designed by Patricia Urquiola herself, Doshi&Levien, Ron Arad, Sebastian Herkner, Edward van Vliet and Benjamin Hubert, among others. A special focus will be dedicated to Green Light, the table and bookshelf project by great artist Olafur Eliasson and the Gentry sofa, one of the company’s bestsellers, here redesigned and resized by Urquiola.
