Every year we visit the annual Salone Internazionale del Mobile in Milan, and every year we save SaloneSatellite—the portion of the fair dedicated to young designers under the age 35—for last. This year marks the 16th iteration of the show, created by Marva Griffin Wilshire, who alongside esteemed judges from around the world welcomed hundreds of entrants and 17 international design schools to display their creations. The theme this year was "Design & Craftsmanship: Together for Industry" and for the fourth year in a row, Griffin Wilshire and her jury presented the SaloneSatellite award to six winners.

Each year SaloneSatellite, located at the far end of the impossibly huge Salone fairgrounds, offers an opportunity to young designers under the age of 35 to display their prototypes to the design world. Many world-famous designers, including Jasper Morrison, Harri Koskinen, Matali Crassat, and many others, were discovered here.
