SHIFTING MATTER • SHIFTING MATTER •

Familiar materials are transformed. New formulations, processes and technologies are making design more dynamic than ever, responding to new needs and opportunities. The possibilities of matter are expanding, giving rise to new languages, performance characteristics and applications that increasingly blur the boundaries between material and functional categories.

For Milano Design Week 2027, Materially curates a selection of materials developed within universities, research centres, laboratories, startups and companies: materials that arise from the convergence of diverse expertise and transformative approaches, opening up new territories for experimentation.
