I will write more about this later, because Molly and I are taking a couple of days off after the craziness of the 2004 Milan Furniture Fair (the Salone dei Mobile in Italian). I'll write some more afterward, but here are some random images from I took.
Some first impressions:
- Orange is still the new red (red is also still the new red)
- Woodgrain is still the new Formica
- Comfort is still nonexistent
- As far as most "mainstream avant garde" design is concerned, it's still 1970
- The Barcelona Chair is the most frequently copied classic chair

"The Barcelona Chair is the most frequently copied classic chair" - it has always been, so nothing new
