Tour the Cassina showroom with renowned architect and designer Patricia Urquiola and see her studio space.

During this year’s annual Milan Design Week, Cassina unveiled The Cassina Perspective 2022. Showcasing both new products and iconic pieces, the eclectic yet complementary collection is a work of enduring inspiration and deep design thinking for the future.

Art Director for Cassina and renowned architect and designer Patricia Urquiola led some visitors on a tour of the Cassina Milan showroom, and we were there to capture the highlights. Sharing stories of design masters and their history, Patricia described the iconic works that have inspired new designs, material usage, techniques, and production methods.

Patricia also emphasized the importance of seeking out and supporting new partnerships—not just in design, but in production and other areas as well. “You have to always be open to new conversations—with the world,” she said. “Anything you do, it’s not always about your ideas. It’s about real conversations with the people that work with you.” Understanding this and being open to new ideas from new people allowed Patricia to solve a production issue and bring the design for one of her new vases to life.
