Double Signature. A dialogue between design and artisanal excellence

Milan
Villa Mozart

2024

On the occasion of the 2024 Salone del Mobile, Fondazione Cologni dei Mestieri d’Arte is pleased to present the eighth edition of Doppia Firma. A dialogue between design and artisanal excellence, a project developed with Living, the interiors, design and lifestyle magazine published by Corriere della Sera, under the patronage of the Michelangelo Foundation for Creativity and Craftsmanship.

A long-established and much-anticipated event of the Salone del Mobile in Milan, Doppia Firma celebrates the alliance between design innovation and the tradition of great master craftspeople. Unprecedented creative partnerships between a designer/artist and an artisan or manufacturer of excellence generate meaningful objects that draw their power from the cross-fertilisation of design and artisanal savoir-faire.
In keeping with the most authentic and inspiring spirit of Doppia Firma, this year’s edition marks the return to the programme’s original format, characterised by objects made expressly for the event. 

The focus of the 8th edition of Doppia Firma is the collaboration between leading international designers and a number of the best craftspeople in the city that the Milanese affectionately call ‘Gran Milan’: not only the global capital of design, fashion and art, but also the cradle of artistic crafts and applied arts. Indeed, Milan has always been home to important high-level artisan trades. In particular, throughout the centuries the city has achieved, and continues to maintain, very high standards in the crafting of silver, wood, leather, upholstery, metal, glass, ceramics, and so on. All of which are well represented by the master artisans called upon for Doppia Firma 2024, who will collaborate with some of the most celebrated representatives of contemporary design.
