14 female interior designers participate in Milano Home to interpret new lifestyles through their projects. An initiative by Plaftorm for Milano Home, which aims to give shops and designers a new vision of living spaces.
Living places are undergoing significant evolution in response to changing social, environmental and technological needs. Architects play a crucial role in shaping these spaces, and strive to create sustainable, flexible, communal and aesthetically pleasing environments, with a strong focus on artisan excellence and design research.
“Living places” are spaces where people live, work and interact on a daily basis. In recent decades, these places have undergone significant changes due to various factors, including urbanisation, advancing technology, and evolving social and environmental needs.
Through a careful choice of complements and objects, thanks to the collaboration with local artisans and with a preference for excellent products, sometimes even designing new products themselves, the interior designers present at Milano Home interpret contemporary and achievable interior design, applied, in other words, to living spaces that are accessible to all and also applied to small houses, that are often found in urban areas.
Architects play a key role in the design and creation of living environments adapted to the new needs of society. Here are some of the main changes and trends in living spaces.
One of the major changes is the increasing emphasis on environmental sustainability and environmentally responsible design. Architects are increasingly focused on creating buildings and communities that minimise their impact on the environment, using recyclable materials, renewable energy and energy-saving solutions.
The advancement of technology is greatly influencing the way we live and interact with our living environments. Architects are increasingly integrating intelligent solutions into projects, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), home automation systems and smart infrastructures.
With the rapid evolution of society and family needs, living spaces must be designed with greater adaptability and flexibility to respond to different situations and changes over time.
The combination of artisan excellence and technological innovation is essential for the design of living spaces. Continuous research into sustainable materials, cutting-edge construction techniques and ergonomic design is fundamental to developing high-quality living environments.

To better select the items to be offered in your shop
Objects change and evolve with spaces: previewing the evolution of spaces will help you to better select the products to display in your shop.
·To get to know your customers better
Spaces change when people, needs, values, aspirations, perspectives, conditions, opportunities, stages of life all change - and for each of these conditions there are objects ready to grasp the change and narrate it. Knowing these aspects will help you understand your customers better, propose the right product and anticipate their needs.
·To improve the space and display of your shop
Your shop is also a space. Knowing how spaces change will also help you to better design your sales space and relationship with your customers, and to display items more correctly.
·To have a vision of the future
Because interior designers do not only design spaces, but also objects. They interpret change, predict innovation, offer new visions. Meeting with them will also be stimulating and constructive when it comes to imagining new perspectives and bringing new ideas into the shop.
