NEIMASITAWI Concept Presents
“Le Salon”: A Curated Exhibition of Art, Design, and Immersive Experience.
March 14, 2026 | Palazzo Rossini, Strada Maggiore, Bologna
Bologna, Italy — On March 14, 2026, under the iconic Two Towers of Bologna, NEIMASITAWI Concept will unveil “Le Salon”, an exclusive exhibition of events set within the historic courtyard of Palazzo Rossini, on Strada Maggiore. This landmark evening marks the latest chapter in the international journey of designer and creative director Neima Sitawi, and heralds the much-anticipated opening of her new design haven and showroom within the Palazzo itself.
Palazzo Rossini is no ordinary setting. Once home to intimate creative and musical salons hosted by legendary composer Gioachino Rossini, the courtyard will once again become a stage for culture, dialogue, and artistic experimentation—reimagined through a contemporary lens.
Following her return to Bologna via Paris, Sitawi has been quietly preparing this homecoming moment: the launch of her new creative headquarters inside Palazzo Rossini.
“Le Salon” is not simply an event, but a living, evolving experience, one that reconnects Bologna’s rich cultural past with a bold, contemporary vision of design, beauty, and human connection.
The exhibition promises a selection of NEIMASITAWI Concept’s most compelling works, offering guests a rare insight into the universe of Neima Sitawi: designer, curator, and visionary storyteller.
After the courtyard exhibition, guests will be guided to “enter the mind of the designer,” continuing their journey into Sitawi’s inner world. This second chapter of the experience reveals her complete creative universe, unfolding through an experience lab and a fully immersive, multi-sensory room, where sound, space, material, and emotion converge. The journey concludes by leading visitors to exit through one of the hidden exhibition spaces, adding layers of mystery and challenging perceptions of reality.
About the designer: Having lived and worked across North America, Asia and Europe, Sitawi brings a uniquely global perspective to her practice. Formerly an Italian couture fashion designer and cultural asset advisor, Sitawi has captivated audiences in the cultural and luxury sectors worldwide. Her guiding philosophy, “Bringing people to beauty,” continues to define her multidisciplinary approach to design and experience-making.

NEIMASITAWI Concept Presenta
"Le Salon": Un Percorso tra Arte, Design ed Esperienza Immersiva.
14 marzo 2026 | Palazzo Rossini, Strada Maggiore, Bologna
Bologna, Italia — Il 14 marzo 2026, sotto le iconiche Due Torri di Bologna, NEIMASITAWI Concept svelerà "Le Salon", una mostra esclusiva di eventi ambientata nello storico cortile di Palazzo Rossini, in Strada Maggiore. Questa serata rappresenta il capitolo più recente del percorso internazionale della designer e direttrice creativa Neima Sitawi, e annuncia l'attesa apertura del suo nuovo spazio creativo e showroom all'interno del Palazzo stesso.
Palazzo Rossini non è una cornice qualunque. Un tempo sede di intimi salotti creativi e musicali ospitati dal leggendario compositore Gioachino Rossini, il cortile tornerà a essere palcoscenico di cultura, dialogo e sperimentazione artistica—reimmaginato attraverso uno sguardo contemporaneo.
Dopo il suo ritorno a Bologna da Parigi, Sitawi ha silenziosamente preparato questo momento: il lancio del suo nuovo quartier generale creativo all'interno di Palazzo Rossini.
"Le Salon" non è semplicemente un evento, ma un'esperienza viva e in evoluzione, che ricollega il ricco passato culturale di Bologna a una visione audace e contemporanea di design, bellezza e connessione umana.
La mostra propone una selezione delle opere più coinvolgenti di NEIMASITAWI Concept, offrendo agli ospiti uno sguardo raro nell'universo di Neima Sitawi: designer, curatrice e visionaria narratrice.
Dopo la mostra nel cortile, gli ospiti saranno guidati a "entrare nella mente della designer", proseguendo il loro viaggio nel mondo interiore di Sitawi. Questo secondo capitolo dell'esperienza rivela il suo universo creativo completo, dispiegandosi attraverso un laboratorio esperienziale e una sala completamente immersiva e multisensoriale, dove suono, spazio, materia ed emozione convergono. Il percorso si conclude conducendo i visitatori a uscire attraverso uno degli spazi espositivi nascosti, aggiungendo strati di mistero e sfidando le percezioni della realtà.
Sulla designer: Avendo vissuto e lavorato tra Nord America, Asia ed Europa, Sitawi porta nella sua pratica una prospettiva unica e globale. Ex stilista di alta moda italiana e consulente per i beni culturali, Sitawi ha affascinato il pubblico nei settori culturali e del lusso in tutto il mondo. La sua filosofia guida, "Portare le persone a sperimentare la bellezza", continua a definire la sua pratica multidisciplinare tra design ed esperienza.
