Marrakech – Internationally acclaimed Moroccan designer Hicham Lahlou has just been invited to join the jury of the Salone Satellite Award 2025, one of the most coveted stages for young design talent.
And where’s it all happening? Milan, of course. Because if you’re going to spotlight creativity, you might as well do it in the world’s chicest design capital.
So mark your calendars from April 8 to 13. And now, let’s talk about the Salone Satellite itself.
This isn’t just your average showroom filled with quirky chairs and futuristic lamps. It’s the launchpad for under-35 designers who dare to dream big, bold, and sustainable.
Since 1998, thanks to the visionary Marva Griffin, the Salone Satellite has been giving young talents their Cinderella moment — glass slippers replaced by sleek prototypes and the promise of a global spotlight.
The Salone Satellite Award was born in 2010, upping the stakes and giving the most groundbreaking projects an official seal of brilliance.
Think sustainability, tech innovation, and designs that actually make the world a better place — this is what the award celebrates.
So, what does Hicham Lahlou bring to the table?
Let’s just say — experience, elegance, and a certain North African flair that Milan is lucky to get a taste of.
Lahlou isn’t new to the international stage. His work straddles continents and cultures, always rooted in innovation and identity.
And now, as a juror, he’s helping pick the next big names in design.
For the rising stars about to showcase their work, this is more than a competition. It’s their moment.
And for Hicham? It’s a chance to shape the future of design — one inspired mind at a time.
So yes, Milan is calling. And Hicham Lahlou has answered.
