From 7 to 13 April, Milan will be listening to new cooperations between culture and sustainability, physical and digital, creativity and ingenuity. This is the agenda with the best of events and exhibitions where design, science, art and fashion are totally connected.

<a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/food/where-to-eat-in-milan-fuorisalone-2025-restaurants-addresses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Milan</a> is preparing to welcome Design Week 2025 with a truly eloquent Fuorisalone theme: Connected Worlds . A space where hybridization, contaminations and exploration of different languages and knowledge produce new awareness and change. An invitation to reflect on how design can play a crucial role in connecting the true levels of our lives: from the natural environment to advanced technologies, from cultural traditions to future innovations. Bringing order to this beautiful creative chaos is a very pleasant task. We have selected the highlights of the events and exhibitions with which to discipline the very dense agenda of the next Milanese week. The most eclectic of the year.

At Fuorisalone 2025 in search of sensoriality, well-being and relaxation

PAFF PAFF Liminal Spaces for Sensorial Rituals Park Asspciati

Bridgestone Softrobotics Ventures Zenbot Salon Morph_inn

Sensuality and contact with the textures of materials is almost an urgency in response to how today we are entangled in a perception of the virtual surrounding world strongly induced by digitalization. Three exhibitions and installations designed on this type of fruition and interaction are therefore to be marked in the itineraries of Design Week 2025. The first, PAFF PAFF – Liminal Spaces for Sensorial Rituals, is an installation that explores wool as a symbolic element to create a primordial space, presented by the Milanese design studio Park Associati in via Garofalo 31 - Porta Venezia Design District - together with Finemateria and thanks to the collaboration of cc-tapis and QuadroDesign. SENSES by IAMMI and materia-studio is the multisensory installation in the MelzoDodici auditorium, a dynamic hub in the heart of the Porta Venezia Design District where you can immerse yourself until April 13 in a journey that stimulates the senses with plays of light and shadow, sounds, tactile contrasts and scents in revealing the iconic and irreverent furnishings designed by IAMMI. In the background, a design and production based on the theme of upcycling materials from disused production processes. Finally, in the Brera district, in via Palermo 11, we point out the project by Bridgestone Softrobotics Ventures Morph Inn, a Zen-robotic space that combines automated systems with principles inspired by meditation to create an environment dedicated to relaxation and mindfulness. At the center of this experience is Morph, a soft robot designed to gently envelop people, offering a moment of pause and connection with one&#39;s self through natural movements, such as the breathing of an animal or the motion of the waves. The RAMs - Rubber Artificial Muscles - technology used by Bridgestone is a soft, flexible and adaptable actuator, the result of over forty years of research.
