For October I planned a small trip to Italy and I was really looking forward visiting EDIT Napoli again! EDIT Napoli is an independent design fair that gives space to emerging designers, independent makers and small brands. The fair focuses on contemporary design, craftsmanship and original pieces, with an interest in sustainable production and smaller scale design. While EDIT Napoli takes place at La Santissima, this year’s EDIT CULT programme moves to the Chiaia district. Here, selected designers and brands show their work in historic palaces, churches and other buildings across the neighbourhood.
La Santissima is the main venue of EDIT Napoli. It is located in the historic SS. Trinità delle Monache complex, overlooking Naples from the Quartieri Spagnoli. Built in the early 17th century as a convent, the building later became a military hospital, which it remained for more than a century. Today, the complex is being redeveloped as a place for cultural and public activities.

Camera con vista
For the 2026 edition of EDIT Napoli, a new project called Camera con Vista was introduced at La Santissima. The concept brought together architects, designers and studios, each invited to create a room within the former monastery complex. The rooms offered views of Naples and the surrounding landscape, including Mount Vesuvius. Rather than presenting individual design objects on stands, the participants were given a space to develop their own interpretation of a room.
In my opinion, the Camera con Vista concept worked best when designers created a complete interior that felt like a real living space, rather than a display of individual objects. I particularly enjoyed the rooms where the different elements came together to create a sense of home. A few favourites from Camera con Vista at EDIT Napoli 2026.
AG Space Atelier by Architect Antonio Gerardi
One of my favourite rooms was created by AG Space Atelier, the studio of Neapolitan architect Antonio Girardi. Titled Caos Elegante, the interior brought together different materials, furniture and decorative elements to create a warm, lived-in atmosphere. A sofa with an integrated lamp, a coffee table and cabinet were combined with a large potted palm and sisal flooring.
The presentation also featured the AM/PM collection, including the sofa bed and new additions such as a coffee table, desk and KAT lamp. The sofa bed combines raffia upholstery with contrasting fabric details and integrated lighting.
What I particularly liked was the way the room was dressed and layered. It felt more like stepping into someone’s home than visiting a design exhibition.
Unexpected and colorful with lots of stripes and geometrical shapes by Parrallelismi
Unexpected and colourful, the two rooms by Parallelismi stood out for their use of stripes, geometric shapes and bold colours. Founded by Fabrizia Frezza and her daughter Alessandra Coccia, Parallelismi is a new platform focused on bringing together individual design objects to create cohesive interiors.
At La Santissima, they presented two rooms with a distinct 1970s influence. Red, light blue and white formed the main colour palette, combined with graphic patterns and a mix of straight lines and rounded shapes. Furniture, lighting, rugs and other objects came together in a playful combination of colours, materials and forms.
For Camera con Vista, Sonia Cocozza, Officina Keller and Acro Texture presented Rotte, a site-specific installation based on the history of hemp cultivation and processing in the Campania region. Hemp was traditionally grown and processed by groups of agricultural workers, known as chiette contadine, who worked together in the fields and during the production process. This tradition is the starting point for the project.
Designed by architect Antonio G. Martiniello of Keller Architettura, the installation features an open bamboo structure with visible joints and knots, combined with stretched hemp textiles. Its design also refers to the chiette contadine and their shared work in the cultivation and processing of hemp.
The presentation also includes a textile collection developed by Acro Texture. One of the pieces is a hemp bedspread with coloured bands in different widths and arrangements, making each version slightly different.
