Founded by Giorgia Paolini in 2006, Paolinidesign has a studio in Italy, in the heart of Milan’s city center, and in USA, in the vibrant community of Seattle, Washington. We are both designers and entrepreneurs, able to balance technology and design without ever losing sight of the most important facet of design: humanity. We offer design services and a collection of innovative objects. Meaning is an essential ingredient of our work, an ingredient that allows it to provoke lasting emotions. Our design is of uncluttered execution and sophisticated concept. We intend to contribute positively in our community by being good citizens, respecting resources and using them efficiently.
Sometimes it feels as though Dutch design dominates the fair, and last night was no exception at the opening party for the TuttoBeNe exhibition. Presenting work from 28 young designers, the show was full of colorful whimsical objects, many made from recycled materials. The exhibition format was tight as usual and if you’re here, make sure you pick up a copy of the TuttoBeNe newspaper.
