Strolling through the Salone, it is not hard to sense a growing commitment toward sustainability, and the exhibitors on hand at S.Project are feeling it too: countless solutions aim to reduce our carbon footprint and avoid squandering raw materials, including water. The search is on for new and more sustainable materials and solutions that offer attractive green alternatives.

The new collections showcased by exhibitors participating in S.Project have something else in common: colour. Furniture, objects and fabrics seek to amaze and engage the visitor. Sporting vibrant hues, lacquered surfaces, silver threads and gilding, designers are thinking outside the box and revelling in colour to pep up our surroundings.
