There's a detailed report about Matera, the European Capital of Culture 2019, and about I-DEA, the project I have been designing the displays for, in the current Interni Magazine.
And it makes me happy that Mauro Bubbico is responsible for the cover and that so many photos by Pierangelo Laterza / Fotografo are featured. Both are amazing creatives from the region I'm spending so much time in lately.

I'm quoted as if my Italian was perfect, thank you for that!

I have been working on the exhibition design of the I-DEA project in Matera, the European Capital of Culture 2019.
Here‘s a photo by Pierangelo Laterza, documenting the transition between the first and the second exhibition of the series. It shows two of the main display elements we designed for the project: a modular steel tube structure and stackable wooden boxes.
There will be five exhibitions in total, all curated by different artists and designers, all taking local archives as a starting point.
