On 1 October 2026, at the ADI Design Museum in Milan, the new edition of ADI Design Index was presented, the annual publication by ADI – Associazione per il Disegno Industriale, which brings together projects able to reflect, in their respective fields, some of the most significant developments in contemporary Italian design. Among the 340 selected projects, in the "Theoretical, historical and critical research" category, is the book Ettore Sottsass, l'attività grafica. Una ricerca d'archivio (Ettore Sottsass, the Graphic Work. An Archival Study), by Fiorella Bulegato and Marco Scotti – both lecturers in Design at Università Iuav di Venezia – published by Ronzani Editore, with layout by Monica Pastore. The volume is the fifth in the D|VE – Design Venezia series and received support from the Department of Architecture and Arts.

The projects were chosen by the scientific committee – made up of Alessandro Colombo, Maite García Sanchis, Valentina Fisichella, Fabrizio Pierandrei and Francesco Zurlo – together with the fourteen territorial committees and the fourteen thematic committees of ADI's Osservatorio Permanente del Design (Permanent Design Observatory).
