CARNIVORA: Designing the Dining Experience
Staff and students from the Faculty of the Built Environment were part of a very successful exhibition held at the 2004 Milan Furniture Fair. The FBE stand, which was known as Carnivora, was part of the international Dining Design event.

Dining Design
It was an interactive exhibit organized by international restaurant designer Adam Tihany. The heart of the Dining Design exhibit was the ‘street of restaurants’ each designed by a leading design university. The eateries were provocative and interactive and had the local Milanese queuing to dine at one of ten futuristic restaurants. Each university was assigned a theme, a pizzeria in Kyoto, a karaoke sushi bar in Lausanne a Chinese restaurant in Rome, and each university was partnered with an Italian manufacturer.
The ten restaurants were furnished and constructed by leading Italian manufacturer such as: Dada, Moroso, Kartell, Magis, Sawaya & Moroni, Meritalia, and Poliform. The companies devoted time, finances and most importantly enthusiasm to supporting this event. Our appointed manufacturer Dada, provided us with eager expert construction.
