Designersblock Milan 2017 featuring Biokip

The 17th edition of DB Milan brings together designers from the UK, Italy, Japan, Estonia, and Slovakia. As diverse and eclectic as they are these people and projects share a commitment to narrative, locality, authenticity, quality and craft. Perhaps the strongest link they have is their independence. Designersblock has provided a platform for this spirit since 1998.

Designersblock Milano 2017 is presented by Designersblock and Biokip. Together with the following event partners: Consolo Real Espace, Arts Thread, British Consulate - General Milano, BFM, Clubber Confession, Locals Affair, Colour Hive, Design Exchange, iRO iRO, BLOOP Festival, Radiowe, Becks and MSI.

Our main event partner BioKip

Biokip is a European creative agency that will be co-organising the 2017 edition of Designersblock in Milan. The agency specialises in event management, production and interactive installations. Biokip has held art expositions and events in Milan for over a decade and in 2011 as an extension of their experiences they held the first proactive art festival in Ibiza. This event, BLOOP International Proactive Art Festival has welcomed an average of 90,000 visitors in the last editions and has created unprecedented waves of trends of Arts & Culture on the famous party island.

The 2017 Designersblock Milano will be the groundwork of these two international organisations for the first meeting of design event on Ibiza island.
Solid backgrounds, independent spirit and passion for design and arts.
