Murals at Milan Design Week 2026

Murals alla Milano Design Week 2026

Murals and Fòco by Studiopepe at Archiproducts

For Milan Design Week 2026, Murals takes part in Fòco – Living Notes, the project designed by Studiopepe for Archiproducts Milano, in the via Tortona spaces.

An intervention that does more than build a room: it works on subtle relationships between material, light, and the perception of space.


Fòco – Living Notes: material, light, relation

With Fòco, Studiopepe continues its research into domestic space as an open system, where every element helps define a dynamic balance.

The project unfolds as a sequence of spaces and suggestions, where:

  • surfaces enter into dialogue with light
  • materials build rhythm
  • objects relate to one another

In this context, no intervention stands alone: each is part of a broader composition.


The Murals intervention: a surface that builds depth

Within the project, Murals contributes a selection of surfaces designed to work in a discreet but decisive way.

Wallpaper is not a decorative element, but an active component of the space:
a device that amplifies light, rhythm, and perception.


Waffle: rhythm and dimension

For the installation, the Waffle collection was chosen: a structured pattern that works on depth through light.

The design, seemingly regular, generates continuous variation:

  • it changes with the viewing angle
  • it responds to natural and artificial light
  • it builds a surface that is never entirely still

The result is a presence that doesn't take over the space but moves with it, striking a balance between order and visual vibration.


A surface in dialogue with space

Set within Studiopepe's design context, Waffle becomes part of a larger system.

The surface:

  • doesn't impose itself
  • doesn't disappear
  • but sets up a counterpoint with the other elements

It's in this very balance that the strength of the project lies: in the ability of every component to contribute without overpowering.


Archiproducts Milano: a space for experimentation

The Archiproducts Milano venue, in via Tortona, confirms itself as one of the most compelling Design Week destinations for research into contemporary design.

A setting where brands, designers, and materials meet to build new design possibilities.


Beyond Design Week

Taking part in Fòco is part of a broader Murals path, focused on exploring the surface as a design element.

Not just a covering, but a tool to:

  • define space
  • build atmosphere
  • activate relationships between materials
