Launched back in April during Salone, the Kartell Loves Milano project was as a tribute to Milan, an “act of love” towards the city, which has witnessed the evolution of the company from its first steps in the 1950s through to its success today. A selection of Kartell works were redesigned by 45 different designers, architects, fashion brands, and other creatives, including a piece created by the oncologist, Umberto Veronesi.
