An Exhibition Art Directed and Curated by Bodo Sperlein
During Milan Design Week 2026, Bodo Sperlein presents a new edition of his exhibition MENU at the historic All Saints Anglican Church in Milan’s Brera Design District.
MENU is curated, art directed and architecturally designed by Sperlein, structured around a cohesive design language that shapes the entire site into a unified spatial experience. Rather than presenting individual contributions separately, he establishes a clear architectural framework and material narrative, embedding each project within a consistent visual and spatial identity.

The kitchen island and wall are presented in Milan as part of its official launch.
