Having grown up in the shadow of a charismatic and famous father (Alberto), Francesco Meda is making his way, though in a somewhat subdued manner, with poetic and sensitive projects, to be savoured in silence. After his debut with hybrid pieces, the result of the combining of thin aluminium frames with colourful wooden elements salvaged from old Chinese furniture, he created for Rossana Orlandi an elegant collection of tables, coffee tables, table lamps and ceiling lamps, and trays. These unique

pieces were shown at the exhibition Made in Milano@yoox.com at the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana during the 2015 Salone del Mobile in Milan, promoted through the site of e-commerce Yoox. Francesco, working on thin thicknesses and thread-like geometries, is building a silent repertoire of refined elegance that distinguishes him in the landscape, at times too garrulous, of new design.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
