For Touch By, design is a modern language to raise emotions and surprise people. These were the foundations that Jean-Jacques Martin, on the consultation of Bernard Fric, used to set up this collective of young designers, showing for the first time at 100% Design, stand G54, from 24th to 27th September.
6 young creators will give a sneak peak of their work: around ten pieces of furniture which are each more sparkling and creative than the other. What makes them special? They are all made out of HI-MACS®. Chosen for its functional features, its aesthetics and its design properties, this material has got these young artists' pulses racing. Once again, HI-MACS® has taken on the role of supporting young talent: after an exhibition to launch Us Together at 100% Design 2007 in addition to annual student design competitions, HI-MACS® has signed up for the marvellous Touch By project.
Having seen the quality of the pieces in the exhibition, Francesco Lucchese, a Milanese architect known for creating out of the ordinary multi-sensory spaces, volunteered his services to support this promising group on the 100% Design stand.
New generation artists, a great Italian architect and high performance material: all the ingredients required to trigger a whole crowd of visitors that are passionate about design.
