Piero Lissoni to visit Australia to celebrate Space Furniture’s 30th birthday
Renowned architect, designer, and art director Piero Lissoni will celebrate Space Furniture’s 30th birthday, with a special visit to Australia in October 2023.
Lissoni will tour Space Furniture showrooms in Melbourne, Sydney, and Singapore from Monday, 16 October until Friday, 20 October, and will be the guest of honour at several events, including dinners, parties, talks and interviews.
Since the establishment of its first showroom in Sydney in 1993, Space has been a leader in design retailing in Australia, offering a wide range of brands including B and B Italia, Maxalto, Arflex, Edra, Kartell, Moooi and SP01. Now in its 30th year, they are an internationally recognized brand with five purpose-built, architecturally designed showrooms in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore and an international team that comprises in-house designers, delivery crews, and corporate staff.
Their objective over the past 30 years has been to share design knowledge within the industry and with admirers of design – a philosophy, which has led Space to participate in innovative industry events, host talks with internationally celebrated designers, publish More Space magazine and establish the coveted Space Plus Design Residency prize that has supported several notable Australian designers with career development.
Space will invite members of their team, designers, media professionals and VIP clients to join in the week-long birthday festivities, providing an opportunity to reflect on the past 30 years.
