NEOCOSMOS – Take Me To The Sun: Milan Design Week 2023 by HOMMÉS and TAPIS Studio

NEOCOSMOS – Take Me To The Sun is a cosmic exhibition taking place in Milan Design Week 18-23 April 2023, celebrating the center of the solar system and new design concepts.

HOMMÉS Studio, alongside TAPIS Studio, under the umbrella of HOUSE OF HOMMÉS, presents a future vision of living. The exhibition, which will take place in two iconic locations, has its first debut at Salone del Mobile Milano in pavilion 18 Stand E01, and will return to Palazzo delle Meraviglie at Museo Bagatti Valsecchi (MonteNapoleone district).

With an eye to the future, HOMMÉS Studio invites you to imagine a futuristic concept that uses tools such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) to open the doors to spectators’ creativity beyond indoors to outdoors. Check it out!

For the second year in a row, HOMMÉS and TAPIS Studio are going beyond the obvious and presenting more than a design concept at Milan Design Week 2023. After the success of the previous edition, the Studio promises to shake up the fashion capital by taking the indoor and outdoor concept to a futuristic level over a metaverse experience.

NEOCOSMOS is a tribute to the sun and a vision for the future of human spaces that celebrate a deep connection with nature, and life.

With a Manifesto that encourages the pleasure of outdoor interior spaces, the exhibition is a verdant contemplation of the divine energy that connects all living things on Earth:

THE MANIFESTO
THE SUN RISES
A BRILLIANT, BEAUTIFUL, WARM RED LIGHT
IT DRIVES TIME, OCEAN CURRENTS, SEASONS, AND CLIMATE.
IT CREATES LIFE
TAKE A SEAT, RELAX, AND ENJOY
TAKE ME TO THE SUN

By taking a multi-sensory approach to design and incorporating innovative materials and technologies (such as AI), learn more about NEOCOSMOS, an exhibition that challenges traditional notions of what a house should be and explores the possibilities of what it could become. 

NEOCOSMOS – The Exhibition Concept

What if you could live a new perception of outdoor living by incorporating materials, textures, colors, and lighting to create a unique tactile and visual experience? The clash of stellar shapes and bold colors creates a bold and vibrant aesthetic that adds meaning to our living, turning any home into a private universe. 

During MDW 23, those visiting the exhibition at Salone del Mobile Milano or in the Palazzo Meraviglie in Museo Bagatti Valsecchi will have the opportunity to interact on-site with two different experiences: a cosmic indoor space and futuristic outdoor experience marked by the selection of the highest level of furniture from the Studio’s collection.

NEOCOSMOS will present the guests with refined materials, futuristic silhouettes, vibrant colors, and a design based on comfort and desire materialized right before the eyes. An unconventional mix of powerful stones, vintage patterns, and curated furniture creates living areas that embrace life’s simple pleasures, revealing the natural world’s beauty.

TAKE ME TO THE SUN

NEOCOSMOS is about a synesthetic journey of the conscious thought parallel worlds that emphasize and connect the viewer with the universe, the sun, and life, with a gentle reminder of the importance of nature’s contemplation and preservation. 

The idea is that we, as humans, are responsible for making the world a better place to live in, not only for ourselves but for future generations. And by doing this, we can ensure that the beauty and wonder of experiences like “Take me to the sun” are accessible to future generations and that our world remains a vibrant and life-sustaining place for all. 

CAN YOU IMAGINE?

An immersive journey that transports us to the future through light! We can envision interiors inspired by an ethereal attitude of deep delight.

The design carries a futuristic language, and the primary function of each object and purpose are transformed, attaching a new symbolism.

REALITY OR ILLUSION? – A virtual Journey

Be amazed by the power of technology! With an eye set on the future, HOMMÉS Studio invites you to imagine a futuristic concept differentiated and full of intensity. A portal for visitors to contemplate the divine energy that connects all living things on Earth

Through the representation of projected scenarios using Artificial Intelligence, the spectator will be invited to enter a parallel universe, in distant deserts. Reality or illusion? NEOCOSMOS presents the recreation of metaroons inspired by the best of outdoor interiors, with a collection that is pleasurable and full of life at the same time. 

A hybrid space that evolves and transforms itself as change happens within ourselves. It will leave visitors wondering whether the future still needs to be rewritten or a rebirth of classical philosophies and aesthetics.

More than a design concept, NEOCOSMOS is a different approach to traditional design. It is the perfect framework for adding fantasy to our lives, transforming any home into a private universe. The future is now.
