Milan Design Week 2025: five unmissable events

The most fascinating installations and multimedia experiences in this edition. On stage from 7 to 13 April.

Like every spring, Milan turns into the world capital of design thanks to the design week, an event that intertwines creativity, innovation and experimentation in a continuous dialogue between art, architecture and lifestyle. The 2025 edition promises to be more ambitious than ever, with the Salone del Mobile that returns to dominate the spaces of Rho Fiera and the Fuorisalone that spreads in every corner of the city, from historic buildings to emerging neighborhoods, to unpublished locations ready to amaze with immersive installations and interactive experiences.

At the center of this week there is not only the furniture, but a wider vision of design as a language capable of influencing every aspect of daily life. Sustainability, technology and crafts of excellence will be the main themes, with exhibitions ranging from big names in the sector to young emerging talents. From the most iconic districts, such as Brera, Tortona and Isola, up to the constantly evolving scenarios such as Alcova and Baranzate, Fuorisalone 2025 is preparing to redefine the boundaries between aesthetics and functionality once again.

To orient themselves between hundreds of appointments, here are five unmissable events that enclose the spirit of this edition, including visionary installations, unexpected collaborations and projects that tell the future of design.
