Had enough of Italy? I haven't. After spending the weekend back on American soil, I'm still daydreaming of the all the things I saw over there last week. Here's a good example. At the very back of one of the least noticeable halls at Il Salone is the Salone Satellite, or the cheap seats where you find the young and aspiring designers. I've rounded up ten that I really loved. These designers may be young, but they're highly skilled and already underway with their careers.

R2B2 by Christoper Thetard of Studio Montag:

"Did you know that in three minutes it takes you to whip cream Germany produces six tons of electronic scrap? R2B2 is a piece of kitchen equipment that enables you to counteract this development while still being able to whip cream in three minutes. "
