MILAN DESIGN WEEK refers to the international design events held in Milan, Italy every April. The events roughly consist of two parts: Salone del Mobile.Milano, the world's largest international furniture trade fair that attracts more than 400,000 people in the architectural and design industries, and the Fuorisalone, in which various installations are exhibited throughout Milan. During these internationally high-profile design festivals, new designs are transmitted from the entire city of Milan.
