At DVArea, we believe it is important to promote a sense of design. For this reason, we have been supporting this project since 2023 and participating as instructors. SOU is a unique extracurricular programme for children aged 7 to 12 that aims to stimulate creativity, imagination and ingenuity and is led by architects, designers, engineers, university lecturers and art historians.

DVArea took part in the initiative promoted by True Quality aimed at renewing two public housing complexes in Via Morosini in Brescia through street art and the involvement of residents. In addition to supporting the intervention, DVArea will lead a project involving students from LABA Brescia and the Brescia School of Architecture to redesign the communal areas of the buildings.

DVArea actively supports the Cascina Ri-Nascita project launched by SVS Donna Aiuta Donna Onlus, a social cooperative that protects and supports people who have experienced violence. Together with Alessandra Kustermann, the president of the cooperative, DVArea, in collaboration with SVS Donna Aiuta Donna Onlus and CADMI, has initiated a socially significant project aimed at creating a safe haven for women coming from violent situations.

For several years, DVArea has supported La Corsa Rosa in Brescia — a symbolic and widespread event that promotes awareness and prevention of women’s health issues. The active involvement of our team strengthens our bond with the region and reflects our shared values of inclusion, well-being and solidarity. It is a commitment that goes beyond simple sponsorship and helps to make the event a real moment of commitment and awareness-raising.

On the occasion of the exhibition “Gli artisti e la Piazza a 50 anni dalla strage” AAB’s commitment to 28 May, DVArea curated the exhibition set-up at the headquarters of the Associazione Artisti Bresciani for the show organised in collaboration with the Casa della Memoria to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the bombing of Piazza Loggia in Brescia.

As part of Bergamo Brescia Italian Capital of Culture 2023, DVArea curated the exhibition design for a show featuring works by living artists from Brescia and Bergamo. The initiative was supported by the Associazione Artisti Bresciani and the Scuola di Bergamo – Cultural Association of Alumni and Supporters of the Accademia Carrara di Belle Arti.

As part of Bergamo Brescia Italian Capital of Culture 2023, DVArea promoted a series of events entitled “Progettiamo la città del futuro” which offered a new perspective on innovation and sustainability. The initiative highlighted the potential of urban regeneration, environmental protection and digital transformation. It comprised five free events open to all citizens and included lectures, city walks, conferences, virtual experiences and workshops for students aged 7 to 24.

To celebrate the 2023 Bergamo Brescia Capital of Culture, DVArea has published an alternative map of Brescia, created with contributions from all the studio experts. The map is a valuable tool for residents and visitors. It is a collection of successful entrepreneurial, cultural and urban stories projected into the future, with a strong focus on people, environment and quality of life.
