In the setting of Milan's Spazio Oberdan, Globo was nominated for the grandesignEtico International Award 2012, the prestigious design award which combines technological development with environmental and social sustainability. The initiative, sponsored by the Province of Milan Department of Culture in partnership with grandesignEtico, involved the biggest names in Italian design.
The panel, consisting of designers, planners and representatives from businesses in the sector, selected the products, the designs and people which have stood out from all the others in their ability to combine ethics with business culture. User-friendliness and commercial appeal are the two reasons given by the panel for nominating the Affetto bathroom collection from Globo, designed by Luca Nichetto.
