A PLACE FOR RE-DESIGNING L IFE.appar tamento lago.com

THE APPARTAMENTO IS A NEWVISION OVER THE FUTURE
The Appartamento is a Lago project, conceived through the awareness that design is not only about the individual product, but also about improving people’s life and work environments.With this in mind, we have found an innovative way to support this idea financially.
The project involves several flats where the most interest-ing people meet and think at how to re-design life and their territory.The Appartamento is an incredibly beautiful place, de-signed to welcome people, work, relax and come up with ideas which will re-design the future.The flats are located in big cities but not only: they are wherever there is excitement, energy and people who have ideas to change the world.
Anybody can apply and propose their own flat.

THE APPARTAMENTO IS A NEWECONOMIC MODEL
The person able to make an Appartamento special is the master of the house: the tenant. The tenant’s task is to or-ganize events, to get in contact with those who make in-novation within his city, to develop networking opportuni-ties and to introduce the place where he lives to as many people as possible.
For this reason the tenant we are looking for is a special person, capable of involving, designing, taking up the challenge.
The tenant is keen on design and knows everything about Lago furniture, that’s why he is its ambassador in the city. By opening the doors of his house he will help people de-sign and choose to purchase the Lago furniture. In such activity, the tenant is supported by Lago, which supplies the home furniture at a favourable price, as well as the training and the necessary tools.

THETENANT
SOME SIMPLE SUGGESTIONS
28
29
The Tenant is a person who loves socializing, who man-ages to organize the coolest party in 2 hours, without los-ing heart when it’s time to tidy up.
He lives in the Appartamento alone, with his family, with his friends. He doesn’t have a fixed timetable, he opens the doors of his flat according to his availability, making agreements each time with those who are willing to visit the Appartamento.
In order to advertise his house he organizes din-ners, hosts small events, turns his flat into an in-teresting and well-known place in the city.
He tunes a serenade to his city from his houses’ balcony: he’s certainly not short of courage for it.

For the first time, there’s no trick at all!We are convinced that everyday life is much more fasci-nating and expressive than the slick and now faded life which is continuously being fed by the media.
We have wanted to satisfy our whim to try to stir things up: last April In Milan, at Via Tortona, we were the first who opened an Appartamento, and lived together for a short period.
The enthusiasm of the numerous people who came to see us made us keep on like this: a joyful atmosphere, full of sounds and colours, extremely stimulating, is the ideal environment to open the design to its highest possibilities. To communicate with the living space, to be spellbound every time in a new way: this is the contribution, the right humour which needs to be cultivated in people - starting from the environments where they spend the majority of their time - so that they can express themselves more and more freely.
WHAT’S THE TRICK?
