Welcome to
the most
glo-cal
neighborhood
in Milan!

‍

ZONA SARPI is developed in collaboration with the hybrid and active neighborhood — designers, companies and institutions will tell the quality of Chinese design and lifestyle in connection with the projects of the Milanese and international community.

ZONA SARPI is at the center of a national and international network that joins the neighborhood’s hybrid and active community. This, combined with the diverse skills of our team, allows us to propose content and activities targeted according to stakeholders, customized to the interests of brands.

EDITION ’26

April 20—26, 2026

With the theme of the year — DO IT BETTER, TOGETHER —, we are launching a renewed call to everyone. Last year we strived for improvement, but today we challenge you to go further: to move from individual effort to active, collective collaboration. It is an invitation to bridge cultural gaps, rethink the way we inhabit shared spaces, and elevate the quality of our urban landscape through innovative products, services, and installations.

But above all, it is a call to celebrate the multicultural soul of our neighborhood, proving that the most meaningful design is the one we build together

EDITION ’25

April 07—13, 2025

With the theme of the year — DO IT BETTER, we launched a call to everyone — to strive for improvement, to respect the environment, the community, and future generations, and to enhance awareness and quality in products, services, events, and installations. But most importantly, it’s about fostering relationships built on mutual empathy.

EDITION ’24

April 15—21, 2024

Zona Sarpi was established in 2024 as part of Milan Design Week's official program. Starting with the local community, it created a virtuous network of collaborations between designers, companies, institutions, and commercial activities of Italian, Chinese, and international origins. It hosted 65 events, performances, and exhibitions along Via Paolo Sarpi, integrating prestigious venues like Fabbrica del Vapore and the ADI Design Museum.
