MILAN DESIGN WEEK 2026

During Milan Design Week 2026, Imperfettolab presents an itinerary across three locations in Milan. Its core is Imperfettogallery, in its permanent space on the Naviglio; it extends to 10 Corso Como and Next Place Brera.

This is complemented by a presence at Palazzo Bovara, within the “Sensory Landscape” project by Elle Decor Italia, as an integrated contribution to the exhibition path.

SODALIZI TEMPORANEI + I-LIVINGSPACE | IMPERFETTOGALLERY

Within Imperfettogallery, Imperfettolab presents a selection of the most iconic and forward-thinking pieces from its collection, the result of nearly thirty years of research. In this context unfolds SODALIZI TEMPORANEI, where the new collection enters into dialogue with that of Dutch designer Ruud van Oosterhout, whose research revolves around a design in which material, proportions and volumes are meticulously defined, and with Henzel Studio, which through its Collaborations project, active for over a decade, translates works by contemporary artists into the medium of the hand-knotted rug, activating a dialogue between artistic practice and textile form. On this occasion, it presents the preview of RICHARD PRINCE, 1967, a work conceived by the artist in 2013 and now, thirteen years later, introduced for the first time as a hand-knotted rug in an edition of 20. The exhibition is completed by works from Erich Turroni and Verter Turroni, an essential presence that reinforces the central role of art within Imperfettolab’s design approach.

On the first floor of the gallery, I-LivingSpace is open to visitors, an environment where the narrative shifts scale into a lived dimension. Here, Imperfettolab’s language engages with hand-knotted rugs by Calle Henzel and Olaf Breuning, alongside lighting by Pulpo, ceramics by Bosa imagined by Jaime Hayon, textiles by Innate and olfactory elements by Omatiiq, constructing a tangible vision of living and defining a domestic identity.

Completing the environment are paintings by Marco Neri, which introduce a further layer of interpretation in the dialogue between art and design.

SONNAMBULO LUCIDO | 10 CORSO COMO 

Imperfettolab’s presence extends into the city with SONNAMBULO LUCIDO, an installation in the mezzanine of 10 Corso Como: an invitation to discover its language, where Verter Turroni’s vision translates the brand’s creative universe into an immersive experience within one of Milan’s most iconic cultural venues.

NEXT PLACE BRERA

Next Place Brera, the core of the Next Place Hotel project, brings together an international network of protagonists around the future of hospitality spaces. The international studio OBMI, which coordinates the project, introduces indoors the B.olla mirror designed by Bruno Rainaldi for Imperfettolab and selects elements of the Imperfettolab language designed by Verter Turroni, including the Io chair and the Orghen table, while also dedicating a room to a new project by the designer developed around the dimension of rest. In the outdoor space stands Qirat, an organic seating piece designed by Elia Turroni for Imperfettolab, in limited edition. The project also unfolds through Around the City, a diffuse urban circuit, within which Imperfettogallery hosts one of the program’s events in its own space.

“SENSORY LANDSCAPE” | PALAZZO BOVARA

Within the “Sensory Landscape” project by Elle Decor Italia, conceived by Piero Lissoni, a selection of decorative elements by Imperfettolab is intended for the outdoor space, becoming part of a narrative that explores the relationship between perception, nature, and space.
