The INTERNI exhibition-event, Design Re-Generation, and the insights ahead of FuoriSalone 2022: the June issue of Interni is on newsstands with Annual Cucina 2022 and the FuoriSalone Guide. And the KingSize is available online

Regeneration is a chemical process produced by man. Rebirth is a natural process, which can also belong to the metaphysical sphere. Design seems to belong to both categories.” This is the starting point for Andrea Branzi’s reflections on Design Re-Generation, the theme developed in the exhibition-event organized by Interni for the FuoriSalone 2022 and explored in the articles of this issue.

Regeneration as design practice

The title points to regeneration as a design practice, whose aim is not just to recuperate what has already been constructed and produced, but also to improve the quality of life of the inhabitants and users of these artifacts. Design Re-Generation also refers to a new generation of designers with a regenerative approach - an approach of ‘restoration’ based on a principle of care - who have adopted a new viewpoint on the challenge of sustainability: to heal the rift with nature we need to act on it from within, studying and learning about its mechanisms through a multidisciplinary approach, avoiding the perception of a reality separated from that of human beings.

The illustration by Christoph Radl interprets the theme of the exhibition organized  by Interni for FuoriSalone 2022. The approach taken  by Knoll is also conceptual, with a special graphic design that creates a pattern in an abstract interpretation of the company’s most iconic pieces  and new creations. The layer that blurs the image makes reference to the pavilion set up at the Salone  del Mobile, with semi-transparent partitions to alter  the visual perception of the context while highlighting the objects on display inside. 

Innovative proposals

This is asserted by Andrea Branzi, and also emphasized in an interview with Sarah Ichioka, a member of the advisory board of the 23rd Milan Triennale due to open on 15 July. It is also demonstrated in the projects of Shahar Livne, Fernando Laposse, Studio Ossidiana and many other designers under 35, raised in the era of ecological disaster that began prior to their birth. In an equally visionary but also realistic way, the exhibition Design Re-Generation organized by Interni sets out to present a series of innovative proposals in which the creativity of well-known exponents of international design interacts with the most advanced research of companies - for example, of Michele De Lucchi with Whirlpool - with the shared aim of finding concrete solutions to improve our present and the near future.
