The Salone del Mobile is the global benchmark for the Home Furnishing Sector. An invaluable tool for the industry as well as an ongoing, quite extraordinary promotional vehicle. The Salone made its first appearance in 1961, designed to promote Italian furniture and furnishing accessories on the export market, and it has continued to do so impeccably, ensuring that the quality of Italian furniture is known to all four corners of the earth, and continues so to do, with half of all its visitors coming from around the world. It will be held on 8^th-13^th April 2014.

This year, the one that has been choosen is Pantone 18-3224 Radiant Orchid, a subtle shade of purple that, as the administrator of Pantone Color Institute　Leatrice Eiseman　said, “encourages creativity and originality, inspiring confidence, joy, love and wealth”.
