What Are Botticelli Curls

Small young designers and artists (part one)

Students Art School Fountain Arese visited the Milan Furniture Fair with a special mission: to discover what the new trends in design are inspired by art movements of the past.
After the tour we asked the students this question: "Looking back at the history of art, from ancient to contemporary, you're able to establish that connection between what you saw today at the Salone del Mobile and what did you study?"
Some of their answers:

Alice
the entrance of the Fair lakes located between the pavilion and the other reminiscent of the mirrors of the Barcelona Pavilion, as the filming of the typical chair by Mies.
The tables refer to the Mudejar style.
There are many references to Art Nouveau, the decorative parts of lampshades for table lamps.
The recovery of floral art was particularly evident in the fabrics that covered sofas, pillows and blankets. Sinuous lines can also be found in several newspapers and treads with double beds. The back of some chairs
resumed Gothic art, for special features.
In a stand was clearly visible the work of Modigliani used to decorate shelves.

Aurora Some chairs
resumed the chair by Le Corbusier, in the Barcelona Pavilion.
I have also seen tables that point to Pop Art
Some of the furniture appear to reproduce the character of African art.
In Hall of bathroom furnishings are numerous references to Baroque and Rococo to Cubism. Some tables
recall the style of the furnishings by Aalto.
