Cappellini is opening a newly designed showroom in Milan. All Cappellini’s stores has a dedicated colour and in Milan it is yellow – from the famous trams to the old taxis, from saffron risotto to the façade of the buildings. In addition, it is a tone that has always been part of the Cappellini colour palette.
The new interiors have been redesigned to respond more closely to the taste of today’s architects and designers.The opening exhibition, "Homage to Shiro", was dedicated and paid homage to the celebrated Japanese architect Shiro Kuramata, who worked closely with Giulio Cappellini. The display includes iconic products designed by Shiro Kuramata that are still part of the Cappellini catalogue as well as reproductions of original drawings, rare prototypes, and a new edition of Dinah, a product edited in few pieces in the1980s that went out of production and is now highly sought after in international contemporary design auctions.
Dinah will be officially presented to the market in January 2012 at the Imm Cologne trade fair and during Maison & Objet.
