Dedalus Bra 2025: design comes alive again at Mathis Palace

An immersive journey into the heart of Italian design, between memory and innovation. After more than two decades, the historic exhibition Dedalus Bra - Tutti Designers is back in the spotlight thanks to the Piero Fraire Foundation and the curatorship of Axel Iberti, transforming the rooms of Palazzo Mathis into a living laboratory of contamination, critical thinking and beauty. An exhibition that spans generations and styles: from the radical visions of Mendini, Pistoletto, Sottsass and Pesce to the contemporary languages of emerging designers. A collective, choral narrative that makes design a cultural, social and deeply human act.

Display solutions that become language: the contribution of Saglietti Group

For Saglietti Group - through the brand Esposit - participating in Dedalus Bra 2025 did not mean simply providing technical furniture. It was an act of cultural responsibility, an opportunity to put our experience in the design and production of professional display systems at the service of Italian design. We created the layouts for some key works, designing functional, minimalist solutions designed to enhance the content on display:

• The sculpted marble of Alessio Scalabrini's (Skate)Board and Mini(Skate) works, enhanced by the formal cleanliness of our Leon table.
• Michelangelo Pistoletto's work Tutti Designers, displayed on Tango Mini table: compact, essential, calibrated for a silent, authoritative presence
• Alessandro Mendini's delicate Suitcase for Last Journey, entrusted to the solid geometries of our totems, in a dialogue between structure and memory

Each element was designed and installed with philological attention and technical rigor: dimensions, materials, finishes, and proportions were defined to respect the works and fit harmoniously into the historic exhibition context.

A collaboration that is also a statement of intent

"For me, it was a privilege to see our display tables and totems dialoguing with the works of masters such as Mendini, Sottsass, Pistoletto and Pesce. It's not just technique: it's respect and love for Italian design." - Simone Saglietti, CEO Saglietti Group Synergy with theorganization and curatorship of the exhibition was central: special thanks go to Axel Iberti, curator and artistic director, for trusting our expertise.

Dedalus Bra: design as a shared heritage

With over 150 works and 30 authors involved, Dedalus Bra 2025 confirms itself as a key event in the Italian cultural scene. Not just an exhibition, but an active cultural platform where the past dialogues with the present and is projected into the future of the project. For us at Saglietti Group it is an honor to be part of this story, contributing display solutions that bridge content and space.
