Tuttobene is a dynamic platform for Design, working with and for a large network of creative professionals. This year will be their fifth time showing in Milan. Victor le Noble, (fellow initiator of Tuttobene with David Heldt) tells us how it's going.

Sometimes things happen as they should. Sometimes they don't. If you wonder how things are developing here, really, you should actually come and see. It's the fifth anniversary of Tuttobene and it's bound to become a great succes. Why? Well, because so far everything has gone well. We had many visitors on the first day, did several television and radio interviews, and also the setup of the whole show went smoothly and without any difficulties. Maybe its down to experience. Maybe we've learnt how this works. I can't be certain, but in any case we experienced no stress!

Wednesday was the first day of the fair. People enjoyed the presentations, had some coffee, a little talk, and joined the Small Space Design Race. Tonight we'll all go to the event organised by the Premsela Foundation. Let's see how they handle our arrival when we enter with our group of 45 people. We'll pay them an original "Hi, here we all are!"-Tuttobene visit.

Thursday will be a very exciting day. First we'll have a matchmaking event when more than 75 guests, all working within the design industry, will come and talk with our designers. During the event Hotel Artemis from Amsterdam will take care of a nice dinner and our Italian matchmaking partners will make sure there will be some matches made. After dinner the party will start and another 300 invited guests will come to celebrate our fifth birthday and enjoy a Belgian beer and Amsterdam tunes by DJ Mulat. But enough about tomorrow. Today was great it's not even over yet. We're going to enjoy ourselves and maybe we'll see you on the 25th of April in Amsterdam at our reunion party in Pakhuis de Zwijger, Amsterdam!
