    cults of duty. Clothing, shoes, decoration objects, lamps and furniture. In 
    this universe of colors and shapes, the motorcycle can also be considered an 
    object of desire. For the first time the theater houses the exhibition of 
    Design Nerocarbonio (literal translation: carbon black), part of Milan 
    Design Week. The show, held until April 27, presents an innovative approach 
    to the use of carbon as a new aesthetic concept. 

    Used in spacecraft and cars of Formula 1, this material is now available for 
    the manufacture of items of decor, accessories and even parts for 
    motorcycles. To meet these concepts, the Nerocarbonio is a unique exhibition 
    of objects designed by Alberto del Biondi Industrial Design. Among the 
    pieces are the lights of Ono Luce, the tissues of Keidea and a new version 
    of the Bimota DB7 motorcycle.
