SOLIDIFIED is a curated exhibition by established designers with a strong focus on material. During Milan Design Week 2024, new pieces by Rive Roshan, Rick Tegelaar, Jesse Visser, Umut Yamac, and Form Editions will be presented.
Form Editions will present a mix of pieces from the collection and new launches: a collection of new tables and floor lights made from single sheets of steel by Frank Penders, a sculptural wall light by Studio Verbaan, new sculptures and a chair by Studio Verbaan, a large layered glass wall light by Rive Roshan, carpets by Frank Penders and Studio Verbaan produced by Moooi Carpets for Form Editions.
Matter can be in three states: solid, liquid, and gas. The objects we use around us, that we live in and with, are usually made of solids. In the exhibition SOLIDIFIED, we celebrate real solidified materials. In a world that is rapidly transforming and becoming more digitalized, more elusive, and unpredictable, SOLIDIFIED wants to celebrate ‘realness’ to offer a ‘hold’.
This exhibition features objects and products where materialization and production methods (the craft) are essential. Items that offer a counterbalance to a fleeting world. Tangible products that respond to and excite the senses. Innovative works with new inventions and applications not only leave the visitor amazed but also give the work meaning; meaningful manifestations.
Isola Design District – Via Carlo Farini 35, 20159 Milan
