On Saturday 20 May, for Open!, David Chipperfield Architects Milan organised an exhibition in their atelier, showcasing nine lamps and a selection of drawings by Italian architect and designer Umberto Riva.
The exhibition’s title Chipperfield approda a Riva: incontro sulla stessa sponda del Naviglio Grande (Chipperfield approaches Riva: meeting on the same bank of the Canal), is a play on words that pays tribute to DCA Milan's neighbour, with whom they have established a professional friendship.
The exhibition has now been extended for the second edition of Arch-Week, running 23 to 27 May.
