Following on from last year’s success, kidsroomZOOM! returns for the Milan Design Week. Once again, kidsroomZOOM! will showcase the most innovative and exciting products for you to design the perfect living space for your children. kidsroomZOOM! 2 offers a full spectrum of creative inspiration – from design to contemporary art, from fashion to books, from cookery to learning labs – providing you with the ideal opportunity to find everything you need to create a magical paradise for your children.
In this time of social and economic difficulty, kidsroomZOOM!’s philosophy remains the same. We firmly believe that the experiences of our childhood are what make us into the adults we are today. Just as the artist Maurizio Nannucci declared: ‘All art has been contemporary,’ so our motto is: ‘All adults have been children.’ Even when everything seems against us, we know how important it is never to give up on our dreams. And that is precisely why we decided to adopt the name of an amazing new product that we will be exhibiting: a sledge on wheels – that even a lack of snow can’t stop – which was created by the Polish designer Szymon Hanczar and christened: ‘WE NEVER GIVE UP!’
Now in its second year, kidsroomZOOM! will be held in a new location at via Mellerio 1, where is located a stunning apartment building dating from the late 1970s. This inspirational setting will be styled to create the perfect house for children: a place in which to play and grow, learn and observe; a place in which little ones can become king or queen of their own dominion. For we believe that every child should have the opportunity to develop their imagination and creativity in an environment that surrounds them with toys and objects that can assist them in their growth.
