- As you know, the worlds of architecture, design, music, art and fashion are all closely linked and continually influenced by one another. The world’s biggest design event happens each spring in Milan, Italy. It is called the “Salone Internazionale del Mobile.” Literally, it’s translated as the “International Furniture Fair” but is more frequently referred to as “Milan Design Week.”
