A spirit of innovation continues to drive the fair, not least in the way its organizers have responded to the pandemic. Sunday marked the opening of a special edition called Supersalone. Exhibitor booths have been replaced with display walls that are hung with products and allow for free circulation. And whereas Salone had previously been limited to members of the trade on most days, Supersalone welcomes the public throughout its five-day run, for a reduced entry price of 15 euros (about $18). One Salone tradition has not been altered: Throughout the week of the fair, design is also being celebrated in shops, galleries, parks and palaces throughout Milan.
