Walter Mariotti: It’s difficult to talk about Domus in a moment like this, when we’re seeing a gradual erosion of the values and experiences that give depth to the way we live – often replaced by something more fleeting and consumer-driven. Domus stands in contrast to that. It remains one of the most historic and influential international magazines, founded in Italy in 1928 by the architect and designer Giò Ponti, one of the key intellectual figures of the 20th century, together with the young entrepreneur Gianni Mazzocchi, who helped bring Ponti’s vision to a global stage. From the very beginning, Domus had a strong international outlook, with a clear mission: to bring the world to Italy, and Italy to the world, through the lens of architecture, design and art. 
Today, it is distributed in nearly 90 countries and represents a key reference point not only for professionals, but for anyone who wants to understand contemporary reality through the lenses of architecture, design and art. These are not just disciplines: they are ways of interpreting the world.
