LOUIS VUITTON AND MILANO DESIGN WEEK: APPOINTMENT AT GARAGE TRAVERSI WITH OBJETS NOMADES

Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades is the collection composed of ingenious, creative furniture and functional objects that, since 2012, has expanded to accommodate the creations of an ever-increasing number of celebrated international design names. The creative starting point is the “Art of Travel,” the Maison’s heritage for more than 160 years and a reinterpretation of its essential spirit, each Objet Nomade is an expression of a unique combination of designers’ creativity and Louis Vuitton’s unparalleled savoir-faire.

The new objects will be the protagonists of the fifth edition of the exhibition celebrating ten years of the “Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades” collection in Milan, on the occasion of Design Week 2022, in the Garage Traversi space, an admirable example of rationalist architecture and a historical place for the Milanese tradition, designed by Architect Giuseppe de Min, which after twenty years of inactivity, is returned to the city of Milan completely renovated.
