EDIT Napoli 2025: Design Fair Moves to Santissima Monastery and Vomero Museums
The seventh edition of EDIT Napoli, established by Domitilla Dardi and Emilia Petruccelli, is set to take place from October 10 to 12, 2025, at the Santissima, a former monastery located in the Spanish Quarters and Vomero areas. This site, which was once a military hospital, remained unused for three decades. The venue's design, created by Lemonot, is inspired by port architecture. Dardi's vision is to highlight the cultural wealth of Naples. Special initiatives titled 'Cult' will occur at Castel Sant'Elmo, Certosa di San Martino, and Villa Floridiana. Key presentations include Luca Boscardin's Animal Factory, a design competition featuring Cetty Grammatica and Giuliano Andrea Dell'Uva, and a mobile housing unit by Paolo Scoglio and Elena Salmistraro.
