Love Italian design? Interested in a trip to Italy? Good news: Italian design house Fantini is calling on designers and architects to submit projects for its inaugural Design Awards. The winners will take a trip to Fantini's scenic lakefront headquarters in Pella, Italy. Fantini's panel of judges, led by Stefano Giussani, CEO of Lissoni Inc., will select six winners from the entries, which can be in either residential or commercial design.

"Fantini is committed to supporting the architecture and design community, and to fostering artistic excellence. It is our hope that creating a way to celebrate the best applications of Fantini designs will give back to A&D professionals, inspire new relationships, and enrich our future collaborations with the best minds in design," says Riccardo Conti, managing director of Fantini USA.
