10 MINUTES WITH ... MARIE HONDA

-

The managing director of Cos bares all about its exciting collaborat­ion with Studio Swine at Milan’s Salone del Mobile this month.

The creative director and the team create a mood board, compile a list of references and inspiratio­n, and pitch it to our selected artists.

It all comes down to our initial meeting with different artists and collaborat­ors. The key is to work with collaborat­ors who complement Cos. It has been the same as the previous years. It’s all about starting a dialogue; we try to keep the process as organic as possible.

Compared to last year’s, this year’s installati­on is very sculptural. It would be quite a magical experience.

It is all based on the Cos DNA: timelessne­ss, modern, functional, and tactile. Salone Del Mobile is from April 4 to 9 at Cinema Arti, Milan. www.salonemila­no.it/en
