"The project reads as a constructed landscape. From the exterior, USM's familiar grid extends across the lawn in low platforms and open frameworks, its green panels catching filtered light beneath the trees."
"The installation builds tension between these two conditions without forcing a resolution. The USM system shifts from furniture to spatial infrastructure, becoming a frame that supports and reveals."
"Visitors move across the lawn, through the open grid, and toward an entry that compresses slightly before opening into the interior volume."
Renaissance of the Real is an installation by Snøhetta and USM Modular Furniture at Fondazione Luigi Rovati during Milan Design Week 2026. It features a lightweight space that frames the interaction between structure and perception. The installation combines USM's modular grid with a soft, textile membrane, creating a contrast between rigid and fluid forms. Visitors experience a gradual transition from the garden to the interior, emphasizing the relationship between the constructed landscape and the surrounding architecture.
