This year Designersblock returns to Thaon de Revel 3 our venue in 2009 for our 10th annual show in Milan.

Revel Scalo d’Isola
Via Thaon De Revel,3
20159 Milano (Zona Isola)

Revel will form the centrepiece of ‘Zona Isola’ a brand new network of venues, activities and events coordinated jointly by Designersblock and Consolo produzione and consulenze.

The showroom at Thaon de Revel 3 is in an area much loved by the Milanese, which we thouroughly enjoyed being a part of last year. We had a great response, from the exhibitors, international visitors, as well as the locals and are very pleased to be returning. The venue includes a courtyard, a theatre big enough to hold 80 people, 2 floors of showroom space at over 480 square metres, as well as a restaurant and bar. Read More…
