Con l\u2019arrivo del Fuorisalone, le strade di Brera Design District tornano a trasformarsi. Per la sua 17\u00aa edizione<\/strong>, la Brera Design Week conferma il distretto come uno dei luoghi pi\u00f9 importanti della Milano Design Week, dove showroom, cortili storici, palazzi e spazi espositivi diventano il palcoscenico di centinaia di iniziative. Con 217 showroom permanenti, tra cui 9 nuove aperture, a cui si affiancano oltre 190 espositori temporanei, il risultato \u00e8 un programma che supera le 300 iniziative<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ad accompagnare questa edizione \u00e8 il tema \u201cEssere Progetto\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, un invito a riflettere sul progetto come processo dinamico: un percorso fatto di intuizioni, relazioni e trasformazioni. Un concetto che prende forma nelle interpretazioni di aziende, designer, istituzioni culturali e showroom del distretto, che durante la settimana daranno vita a un dialogo continuo tra materia, ricerca e sperimentazione.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tra le novit\u00e0 del 2026 debutta Fuorisalone Passport<\/strong>, la piattaforma digitale sviluppata da Studiolabo pensata per rendere ancora pi\u00f9 semplice l\u2019esperienza di visita. Attraverso una registrazione unica e un QR Code personale<\/strong>, i visitatori potranno accedere a una selezione di eventi e muoversi con maggiore fluidit\u00e0, trasformando la scoperta del distretto in un\u2019esperienza ancora pi\u00f9 interattiva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
