TOM DIXON'S
GRAND TOUR

Tom Dixon is back on the road to embark on a Grand Tour of Europe. We visit eight cities to showcase our latest innovations and to explore two themes - Luminosity and Materiality.

Luminosity & Materiality

Following a year of predominantly digital events, which saw Tom’s hologram travel across the world, we are returning to Milan in September to launch new lighting products.

1ST STOP

MILAN

5th - 10th September 2021

"My first encounter with Milan opened my eyes to an immense international design world that had previously been invisible from my British perspective. The passion for design of the Milanese and the understanding of its transformative power remains with me to this day.”

The first stop on the tour will be Milan to coincide with Salone del Mobile. We will investigate LUMINOSITY by delving deeper into how optics and light can improve your spaces.

Tom Dixon will host a luminosity exhibition at the The Manzoni, our Hub and restaurant in Milan. We will launch two new products: the mesmerising MELT Chandeliers, and the hyper-reflective glass PRESS lights.

VIP lunches will be curated by Francesca Sarti from food design studio Arabeschi di Latte and The Manzoni. Luminosity-themed afternoon tea will be designed by inventive food creators and architects of taste Bompas & Parr, featuring the studio’s new Benham & Froud jellies. The tea will also be supported by Cocoon Tea Artisans. By invitation only.

Join us physically at 5 Via Manzoni or digitally, as we host a series of live broadcasts and events.
