design pubblico

Esterni, a cultural project devoted to the riappropriation of a pubblic space every day more polluted by toxic memes like advertising and aggressive private property, promote a 7days event that want to present a different way to live the common spaces, that belong to everyone.

Design Pubblico is from 16th to 23th of april in Milan. It comprehends artistic installations, services for the citizen and urban design, spectacular events and collective performances. And more important this event born from a sincere need for spaces to express diversity.

Esterni declare how the parks and the plazas of all the worlds, driven by a sterilized globalization architecture, are becoming more and more similar. Design Pubblico promote a model for the culture of the “pubblic space” against the “private time”, that involves democratic cultural projects against the markets oligarchies.
