The Dawn of Modernity

Celebrating the pinnacle of design innovation, The Dawn of Modernity shines a spotlight on rare and iconic design pieces from the 1950's and 1960's in Italy, while paying homage to the visionary architects of the era. A transformative decade, part of the Italian design renaissance, distinguished by creative imagination, dynamism and movement, generating a new form of expression of the Modern Times. Young architects characterized by thirst for evolution, pushing the boundaries on both engineering and elegance, away from the traditional forms of art and into a newly emerging world.
