The Salone del Mobile has swung into action once more. Designers, architects, makers and buyers have descended on Milan from all corners of the globe for what is indisputably the world's best furniture fair. With the doors to the Fiera now open, the city itself has also been transformed into a shining vessel for all that's new in design, with almost every urban inch turned into exhibition space for the duration of the Salone (9 to 14 April). Here, we bring you the highlights as they happen.

Kartell's installation at the fair was a riff on the storefronts of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan. Each 'boutique' was dedicated to a designer and their latest offerings for 2013

'We often have fun turning our pictures into objects, clothes and accessories,' says Ferrari (a regular contributor to Wallpaper*), adding, 'ToiletPaper's images can become both a bathing suit and a Formula 1 car. The important thing is not to betray the pop spirit and nature of the magazine, which is ironic and unsettling at the same time.'

The 'A45' bathroom washbasin was Boffi's only new 2013 product launch at Salone. Designed by Bulgaria-born but Milan-based Victor Vasilev, the Cristalplant basin gets its name from its distinctive 45 degree angle, and comes with an optional moveable shelf unit for storage that can also hide drainage. Vasilev was also the brains behind Boffi's popular 'CT Line' shelving system, launched last year

joint collection under the title 'Nichetto=Nendo'

(Image credit: TBC)

Designers Luca Nichetto and Oki Sato of Nendo have pooled their creativity to conjure up a joint collection under the title 'Nichetto=Nendo' at Foro Buonaparte 48. The collaboration was inspired by a creative process in Japanese culture whereby one person composes the first three lines (kami no ku) of a short poem known as a tanka, then sends them to a second person to complete the final two sentences (shimo no ku). The co-designed pieces include these 'N=N/02 wedge of matter' candleholders

For the 'N=N/05 bridges for islands' sofa, Nendo proposed an archipelago-inspired sofa, whose components Nichetto connected by 'narrow bridges' that echo those connecting the islands of Venice

The 'N=N/01 shelves in a comic' began life in Nendo's hands a series of tiny shelves amassed together, between which there would be 'tiny and tantalizing spaces just waiting for something to be places on them'. Nichetto proposed giving them a flexible silhouette reminiscent of a speech bubble
