Event Details

PRESS KIT
 

To mark its tenth anniversary, Tortona Rocks revolutionizes the concept of exhibition and storytelling. With Unframed Design, the event strips itself of any predefined theme, embracing an approach that celebrates spontaneity and immediacy as tools to inspire and engage the public.
 
Its 2025 edition, Unframed Design, is an invitation to a form of spontaneous creation under the banner of authenticity, allowing us to explore the event’s diverse souls, from Pop aesthetics to research projects, from artistic design to creative performance, covering both Made in Italy and international expressions.
 
The TR programme is a thematic anthology that explores the versatility of design. Technology creates interactive environments designed for tailor-made experiences, while the city bursts into life with projects that redefine mobility and street furniture. An essential repertoire of outdoor solutions highlights the central role of outdoor spaces in everyday life.
 
This year, Tortona Rocks is holding the banner of design freedom high. The lack of any one central theme does not symbolize emptiness but rather offers an opportunity: a free space, open to endless interpretations and multiple meanings that are often interconnected.
