An international and
intriguing gaze
at contemporary design
in Venice
The Venice Design Biennial is a permanent platform that every two years takes the shape of diffuse design exhibitions in Venice, coinciding with the Architecture Biennale. Launched in 2016, it is divided between a thematic Main Group Exhibition and a series of Collateral Projects at unique locations across one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Unexpected places for design such as historic palazzos, hidden cloisters, private galleries and other intriguing sites plot the cardinal points of the Design Map visitors receive, which offers a new path for discovering design and unique addresses in Venice.
The curatorial theme of 2021 Main Group Exhibition is Design as Self Portrait.
