On the occasion of the duepercinque international competition, we have received more than 800 projects from all over the world. From Canada to Japan, from South Africa to Iceland, designers, architects, students, and other creative people have designed installations, communication projects, services, performances, and urban furniture that fit in the space of a urban parking area.

Discover on the map the origin of the projects in competition (under the duepercinque section).

The selection to decide the 10 winners of the duepercinque is underway…
The results will be published on this website around March the 15th. All subscribers will receive an update concerning the selection by email.

For the fifth year, esterni presents the Designers’ House. The alternative hospitality project that offers low-budget accommodations for designers, architects, journalists, students and artists coming to Milan for the International Furniture Fair.

A 150-bed sleeping area, shared spaces, bar, projection and chill-out areas, wi-fi connection…
