After the long stop that blocked the Milan Design week in April 2020 and 2021, the city and all its activities will restart in September with renewed enthusiasm. Superstudio will present an edition of rebirth, of change, of a new format, of Made in Italy, of the glance on new world horizons, of thematic and curatorial exhibitions, of Women, of human technology, of digital and virtual. Applications are still open.
By call, by invitation, by request and selection, projects that Superstudio Più will host during the Design Week 2021 in September explore thorny issues of everyday life, encourage progress and imagination. Each Project represents a theme, each theme an idea, each idea has a well-known and competent curator. Here are the first projects that, as in a museum exhibition, are in progress. There are so many but they’re not all: we are waiting for yours to give them the value and visibility they deserve.
Application form to join can be downloaded on www.superdesignshow.com.

Superdesign Show September edition presents a rethought path open to the new design that welcomes all the requests for concreteness, innovation, lightness, sustainability, inclusiveness, interconnection arising in the year after pandemic. The new project proposes a r/evolution of our format closer to an exhibition rather than a fair: with the same rigor, harmony and the same “museum”- like care that has always characterized our event, Superdesign Show will stage a succession of themed projects, collective and sometimes individual, each with a competent and independent curator. Areas telling the best of Italian and international production, contemporary trends of outdoor and indoor lifestyle, with a focus on feminine creative, on upcoming designer and the attention on the icon of the third millennium. Some projects participations are by invitation for a limited number, others upon specific calls for entries, others upon request and after selection by Superstudio’s artistic board. Great brands, famous architects, successful creative people and young talents will be with us to make the event unique and special. We are glad to share a sneak peek of the projects underway here below. Others are in progress and will be communicated later. 
Superdesign Show September Special Edition will take place at Superstudio Più in via Tortona 27. A spectacular exhibition-event will be the opportunity to discover Superstudio Maxi, the venue just finished in via Moncucco, a large, elegant, technological and sustainable exhibition space immersed in the green of the Barona district, an area in total renovation thanks to new architectures.
