Associative Design ’The Best of Portugal'

As part of Milan Design Week 2018, Associative Design will showcase ‘The Best of Portugal’ in Brera Design District, a key area in Milan for the promotion of design. Originated by the Portuguese Association of Wood and Furniture Industries (AIMMP), Associative Design promotes Portuguese brands and products globally.

Bringing Portuguese flair and creativity to Milan Design Week, the Associative Design showcase will feature an expertly curated mix of contemporary and luxury Portuguese design and innovation, including furniture, lighting and objets d’art. The exhibition incorporates 18 companies with new designs from luxury furniture brand Duquesa e Malvada and a fresh home collection from Granorte, a leading sustainable cork flooring manufacturer. Serip Lighting will display new lighting designs, and recent newcomer OIA will present its Kandinsky side tables.

Items from the AD Challenge ’17 will also be on show. Launched in 2017 by Associative Design, the AD Challenge invited fifteen Portuguese and international designers to submit proposals exploring new and innovative furniture designs.
