The 63rd edition of the Salone Internazionale del Mobile takes place from April 8 to 13, 2025 at Fiera Milano in Rho, Milan. One of the most significant annual events in the global design and furniture industry, the fair brings together over 2,000 exhibitors from 37 countries and draws hundreds of thousands of visitors, journalists, and industry professionals from around the world.
This year’s edition is themed “Thought for Humans” — a concept developed through a new communication campaign created in collaboration with Dentsu Creative Italy, with photography by New York-based artist Bill Durgin. The campaign places human beings at the center of the design narrative, framing furniture and interior objects as elements that directly shape the quality of everyday life.
