Design brand "130 (One Thirty)" will participate in the special exhibition "Link of Moments × Link of Existence" held at the ANTEPRIMA Showroom during Milan Design Week, which will take place from Monday, April 20, 2026, to Sunday, April 26, 2026, in Milan, Italy, and will unveil its new installation "Link of Existence."
This exhibition is a collaboration between ANTEPRIMA, WOW, and 130. With the theme that countless moments born in daily life accumulate as memories and shape the outline of our existence, the exhibition explores the traces of memory and existence through two new works: "Link of Moments" by WOW and "Link of Existence" by 130.
■ Exhibition Concept
The countless moments born in daily life accumulate as memories, shaping the outline of our existence.
This exhibition, "Link of Moments × Link of Existence," presents, through two works, the moment fragments of memory emerge and how traces of existence are woven into an individual's inner self.
■ Exhibited Works
This exhibition will feature two works: "Link of Moments" by WOW and "Link of Existence" by 130.
"Link of Moments" / WOW
An installation that encounters fragments of memory dormant in the depths of consciousness through light and video.
Anonymous and universal landscapes become a catalyst for evoking each viewer's memories and emotions, creating an instantaneous experience that oscillates between the external and internal. In the interplay of light and video, the boundaries between memory and reality, self and other, waver, and a collage of personal yet universal scenes emerges.

"Link of Existence" / 130
A sculptural chair that captures the physical afterimage of existence.
A gradient shifting from black to transparent suggests the body temperature, weight, and passage of time of a body that was just there. What remains is not the person themselves, but a "shadow" outlined by absence. The light-transmitting structure changes its density and depth depending on the viewer's perspective, evoking a quiet presence as if someone had recently been there.

<About 130 (ONE THIRTY)>
130 (One Thirty) is a design brand developed by MagnaRecta Inc. It creates furniture, lighting, interior structures, and installations using a unique sculptural approach that "constructs" a single frame (line) into space. While being a rigid structure, it treats the "gaps" through which light, air, and emptiness pass as design elements, presenting products made of lines rather than surfaces or masses. What 130 emphasizes is not fixing the form as a finished product. Even if partially damaged, it is repaired like Kintsugi, and after its purpose is served, it is disassembled and re-materialized. It designs a value chain that includes creation, renewal, and circulation, and primarily selects single-system resins and other materials based on the premise of circulation. Affirming repair and renewal, it expresses beauty that transforms with time, and by standing between technology and craftsmanship, and simultaneously reweaving structure and poetry, it explores the next circular sculptural culture.
