ITALIAN DESIGN GRAND TOUR | DAY 1
September 25, 2017
We were very honored to be invited by Italian Trade Agency (ITA) to join their annual Italian Design Grand Tour in September. It was a great opportunity to explore different brands and manufacturers in the Italian furniture industry, to understand their top-of-the-line craftsmanship and experience the local culture first hand.
During the week-long tour, we traveled all across Italy, from Milan to Verona and Ravenna, all the way down to Florence and Rome, to visit different showrooms and company owners in person. It was a very meaningful and interesting journey, and we are very thankful for the Italian government's seamless arrangement and world-class generosity.
Let's go down the memory lane and revisit what we saw during our special expedition.
