More than 35 Made in Italy brands focused on furnishings, lighting, surfaces and accessories will be showcased alongside Saudi designers at the first edition, which acts as preview of a larger Salone del Mobile to be held in Riyadh in 2026.
Maria Porro, president of Salone del Mobile, said: “Riyadh is the place where vision becomes city. With ‘Red in progress. Salone del Mobile.Milano’ … we are bringing the design culture of the Salone and the exhibiting companies to this country to listen and work together with contractors, developers and architects — not a showcase, but a space where collaboration and content meet, and ideas become places.”
