Utility has been sacrificed on the altar of spectacle. But what does the world truly need today?   The world needs friction. It needs objects that offer resistance, materials that change over time, that wear out, preserving the memory of the gestures of both their creators and their users. Design and fashion must rediscover the courage of utility—understood not as mere grey, sterile functionalism, but as an ethical responsibility towards the space we occupy.    To touch means exposing oneself to error; tell us, then, if we are wrong.   Featured In This Issue: P.18 Sokol, P.54 Takashi Homma, P.79 Chiara Enzo, P.94 Gioconda & August, P.114 Bvlgari Hotel Roma, P.130 Charles Negre, P.140 Audemars Piguet, P.156 Platek At Villa Filomarino, P.175 25kg And Konstantin Grcic, P.188 Eric McArthur, P.207 Walter Pfeiffer, P.218 Dave Masotti, P.239 Salone Raritas, P.256 Victoria Morizono, P.272 Karen Faurie   DETAILS 296 pages Offset printed and perfect bound Full color on coated biodegradable paper Printed in Italy by Ediprima Srl   Cover 1: Sokol, C41 x Ray-Ban Ends Up In The Club Cover 2: Takashi Homma, The Daily Train   DATE OF PUBLICATION June 22, 2026   In collaboration with Ray-Ban
