The Milan Design Week of the car: here’s what to see in 10 steps

From Wednesday 8 June the whole city is invited to join the furniture week, as well as design week, or better known as Fuorisalone. The celebrations open with the original street parade which, like every edition, starts at 18.00 from Piazza Castello, ready to invade the district with floats, performances and music, up to Piazza Affari. How to continue?

1) In Piazza Cordusio, in the former Credito Italiano building, Audi is ready to share its vision of the planet, society and mankind with visitors, in the “Audi House of Progress”: “a place where vision of tomorrow is already a reality ”, according to the brand.
The office was divided into three thematic areas: “Re-generate our planet”, “Re-generate our society” and “Re-generate our lives”. An opportunity for the public to touch the A6 Avant e-tron for the first time, and learn about concepts such as the Grandsphere, the Skysphere and the Urbansphere.

2) At Spazio Bergognone 26 (Via Bergognone, 26). Chapter 11 opens for Honda Civic. Visitors will be able to see how the model has changed after 27.5 million units sold in 170 countries. The global brand has focused today on the full hybrid: a 2-liter petrol four-cylinder Atkinson cycle, two electric motors and a lithium-ion battery. Power of 184 hp and maximum torque of 315 Nm.

3) We need to move to the fashion district (via Verri 10) to understand how BMW design evolves. Mike Meiré, designer and creative, oversaw the “BMW House”, with installations, performances, workshops,
inviting artists such as Botter, Claudia Rafael and Anna Deller-Yee to reflect on the opportunities and challenges in today’s technological developments.

6) If a billboard doesn’t seem enough, Nissan has thought of an installation. 214 square meters on the wall of a building in the Porta Romana area to praise the design and technology of the new Qashqai signed by the artist Cheone. Don’t worry, let’s not reveal the surprise.

7-Porsche chooses the Australian floral artist Ruby Barber from the Mary Lennox studio for its Design Week debut.

The public will also be able to enjoy an immersive experience, entering a 12-meter industrial container: a real space-time accelerator. Just to remember that design is also this: performance.
