Fòco. Living Notes by Studiopepe is a spatial project developed by Archiproducts Milano for Milano Design Week 2026. Composed by the Milan-based design studio Studiopepe, the project brings together a number of international brands and products within a single environment. Archiproducts Milano positions the exhibition as a place for research and selection for architects and design professionals.
At this exhibition, SHINTARO KONO will present When Will The Wind Rise, first introduced at his solo exhibition in December 2025, alongside his signature works As Long As The Night Lasts and The Blue Hours.
Based in Tokyo, he has been creating works that approach light as “Living Equipment,” exploring the relationship between engineering and perception, as well as time and memory. This participation marks the first opportunity to introduce this body of work overseas.
