Shared Matter

20-24 AprApril 2026
Milan, Italy

Governmental organisations Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia and Presence Switzerland return to the 2026 edition of Milan design week with a collective exhibition titled Shared Matter.

The exhibition features six projects by emerging Swiss designers and design studios, including Akuto Studio, Noelani Rutz and Panter & Tourron.

Through partnerships with interdisciplinary experts, research trips, residencies and self-initiated practice, each project aims to showcase the results of international collaboration in design, from research and experimentation to material realisation.

The exhibition seeks to position design as a practice that builds relationships by connecting people, objects and exhibits.

Shared Matter takes place from 20 to 24 April at Spaziovento, Via Pinamonte da Vimercate 4, 20121 Milan, Italy.
