Iconic Italian design brand Alessi is celebrating its centennial with an exhibition titled, Alessi 100-001, curated as an exploration of the company's past, present and future.

Staged inside Milan's Galleria Manzoni, the exhibition is creatively separated into two segments, as indicated by the name Alessi 100-001: the 100 represents the company's previous century and its 12 core values through its archival selection of historical prototypes displayed across 12 different rooms, all curated by designer Michele Di Lucchi's international practice, AMDL Circle, while the 001 represents the company's first project for its next 100 years, conceived by the late designer, Virgil Abloh. In the previous 12 months leading up to the exhibition, 12 unpublished products were released as a special edition range representing the brand's 12 core values.
