The Venice Design Biennial presents "20th Century Masters. Private homes by Scarpa, Sottsass, Pastor", a project part of the official 2025 programme.
Two days dedicated to visiting a selection of private design houses in the historic centre of Venice, which for the first time open their doors to the public. The homes, designed by some of the great names in 20th-century Italian architecture, such as Carlo Scarpa, Ettore Sottsass* and Valeriano Pastor, will be presented by the owners who live in and care for them.

In addition to the residences, we will visit Palazzina Masieri, a project by Carlo Scarpa on the Grand Canal.

PLEASE NOTE THAT
*Unfortunately, for reasons beyond our organization's control, unlike the first date the Munari-Sottsass house will not be open to visitors on October 25.
