27 March 2020: With Italy still in the stranglehold of the Coronavirus pandemic, Fiera Milano has announced that the 2020 Salone del Mobile is cancelled in the interest of public safety.

Italian architect Piero Lissoni has created a modular sofa system for B&B Italia, which can be reconfigured with 84 different components. Presented at this year's Salone Del Mobile furniture fair in Milan, the Dock seating system is designed so that it can be assembled in numerous variations to suit different people's needs.

An icon among icons, the Up armchair by B&B Italia is one of the most well-known and familiar pieces on the international design scene. Since its launch it became a symbol of Italian design as a well as an authentic cultural and political icon.

Stockholm-based Note Design Studio worked with the brand to design the colours and patterns of the material, and then designed the Milan installation to show some of the many ways it can be used. The result is a room filled with 24 towering columns, featuring colourful speckled surfaces and topped with an assortment of 3D shapes.

Design Holding brings together Italian furniture brand B&B Italia and lighting company Flos with Danish lighting firm Louis Poulsen.
