Milan design week is a few days from kick-off, but a number of trends are already emerging from the world's biggest and most important design fair.
Milan design week takes over the Italian city in April each year – and Dezeen has already selected 15 must-see exhibitions and installations to see.
Politics, technology and the environment are the drivers for a lot of this year's trends, which are seeing designers working with recycled materials, ancient crafts and new processes.
