This week on Dezeen: the Dezeen team were in Milan this week to cover product launches, events and installations from the world's biggest and most important design fair.

Visitors flocked to the design exhibitions and installations, particularly Sou Fujimoto's "forest of light" for COS, which proved to be the most popular both on Instagram and with Dezeen readers. Images of the installation dominated our #milanogram2016 highlights tag, which now has almost 9,000 posts and counting.

Dezeen editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs commented on the increased presence of megabrands such as Nike and PepsiCo, who he says are now upstaging traditional design brands in Milan.

Greg Lynn warned that furniture brands slow to embrace technology could go out of business, while Tom Dixon told Dezeen that uncertainty over the EU referendum is negatively impacting creative business as customers postpone decisions.

Trends to emerge from the event included products for children, as brands and designers moved to capitalise on this corner of the market, and coloured-glass furniture.
