award · 2026-03-24

The ADI Design Index 2025 has included the cover designs for the 2024–25 issues of Casabella, the historic architecture magazine published by Gruppo Mondadori, in its editorial projects category. The covers, created by TassinariVetta, explore typographic architecture through a two-year investigation into 20th-century lettering, blending avant-garde and modernist influences. The selection was announced on October 15, 2025, at the ADI Design Museum in Milan, featuring 344 projects representing Italian design excellence. This index serves as a preliminary step for the prestigious Compasso d'Oro ADI award in 2026, with the exhibition traveling to Agrigento, Italy's 2025 Capital of Culture, after its Milan run ending October 30, 2025.
