Pet Design District organisers launch Pet Design City

The organisers of the Pet Design District, which made its debut during Milan Design Week in April, have launched a follow-up project. Pet Design City was presented for the first time on 3 and 4 October at the Milan edition of the consumer show Quattrozampeinfiera, which acts as launch partner.
