New space for design

The Bisazza Foundation: a new cultural space dedicated to design and contemporary architecture is arriving.
On 8 June 2012, the Bisazza Foundation will open a new cultural area dedicated to design and contemporary architecture in their headquarters in Montecchio Maggiore, near Vicenza. More than 6000 square meters will showcase works and installations in mosaics created by internationally renowned artists and designers, as well as hosting temporary exhibitions from the foremost institutions on the international scene.
To mark the occasion of its official opening, for the first time in Italy, the Bisazza Foundation is proud to present ‘John Pawson – Plain Space’, a major exhibition of the works of acclaimed British designer, John Pawson, in conjunction with the Design Museum, London. John Pawson is producing an original, site-specific work especially for the Bisazza Foundation, which will be unveiled during the opening of the Montecchio Maggiore halls: the British designer will use mosaics in the site specific work for the first time in his career.
