Order, Disorder, Chaos

The Box presents “Order, Disorder and Chaos” an exhibition divided in three parts where three young designers develop a theme: ‘Order’ is the first one, by Philippe Tabet.

“Order, Disorder and Chaos” explores the world of design by asking three emerging designers to interpret contemporary society through these three different themes, highlighting the project’s unique ability to review the complexity and exceptionality of everyday life. Development of the three projects is supported by The Box – an aggregator and hotbed of ideas, tools, materials and services for interior design and the production of furnishings and design in the contract sector – which will offer its expertise and tools besides being the physical site where the ideas will take shape.

  After the first event, held in April last year and tied to Paolo Gonzato’s work, The Box now proposes a cycle of three new appointments curated by David Fabio Colaci with Simona Flacco and Riccardo Crenna of Simple Flair, in collaboration with Arper. When scouting designers, the curators also chose several raiders: protagonists of the design world, philosophers, artists, and critics who will be an active part of the production process, intervening during the design phase with their own critiques to enrich its scope.

The initiative starts with “Ordine” whose interpret is the French designer Philippe Tabet. The project will follow until February 2018 with the exhibition “Disorder”, focused on the work of designer Astrid Luglio and “Chaos” centered on the design of duo Mathery Studio.
