Masterly – The Dutch in Milano celebrates its tenth edition at Palazzo Giureconsulti during Milano Design Week 2026. This milestone marks the consolidation of a curatorial platform that brings forward new visions and leading voices onto the international stage.

Nicole Uniquole awaits you in the 25 rooms overlooking Piazza Duomo, which for four years have hosted the event she founded and curates. Much like she appears in Levi Jacobs’ illustration – the Dutch artist selected to conceive the symbolic image of this edition.
Spread across the four floors of the historic palace, over 100 independent designers, established companies, emerging entrepreneurial ventures, artisans, artists, and educational institutions will be featured. Alongside individual installations, this edition places particular emphasis on collective projects.
Born from the synergy between designers engaged in related research or from partnerships between companies that have chosen to join forces to present more ambitious projects, these installations move beyond the logic of simple product display to propose broader narratives, capable of making explicit the design philosophy that underpins them.

The Wunderkammer - 10 Years of Masterly, exhibition curated by Lidewij Edelkoort with Nicole Uniquole

The tenth edition represents an opportunity to reflect on the journey undertaken. In ten years, Masterly has contributed to the launch and international recognition of numerous designers and brands.

To identify the most emblematic projects, Nicole Uniquole involved Lidewij Edelkoort in a process of revisiting the archives, co-signing the curatorship of the exhibition ‘The Wunderkammer - 10 Years of Masterly’.

Installed in the central room on the second floor, the exhibition presents several projects that, through their poetic aesthetics, and originality, have marked the history of the event. In the words of Lidewij Edelkoort:  «In soothing pink sanctuary, striking and unusual works come together in a special wunderkammer, a hybrid world of beauty and attention to material and detail, so many singular creations that have broadened and deepened the idea of design over the years».
