ASUS Announces New 'Design You Can Feel' Exhibition for Milan Design Week
Taking place in a historic 1920s gallery in the heart of Milan, the exhibition will build on the success of last year's Design You Can Feel exhibition during the London Design Festival (LDF). Also titled Design You Can Feel, it will explore the themes of materiality, craftsmanship, and artificial intelligence (AI) to explain the design thinking behind ASUS products, including the latest ASUS Zenbook laptops. The exhibition will also feature an interactive installation by Studio INI.
Exhibition to showcase design thinking behind ASUS products
The installation will speak to the design thinking behind many ASUS products by combining sophisticated technology and engineering with material exploration and artistic expression. The exhibition will also showcase these products and the design stories behind them via playful interactive exhibits.
A highlight of the event will be the ASUS Zenbook laptops – thin and light ultra-portable premium laptops that feature advanced AI tools and are clad in the proprietary ASUS material Ceraluminum™, which combines the lightness of metal with the resilience of ceramics.
Zenbook's design approach is grounded in the ideas of Inspired, Immersive, Intuitive, Quiet, and Secure – qualities that are not only seen but felt. This holistic approach to design, which prioritizes both functionality and the user's emotional connection to the device, is at the heart of the Design You Can Feel exhibition.
Additionally, the exhibition will showcase other ASUS models, including ProArt, Adol, Vivobook, and ROG ACRONYM laptops, with a hands-on area for visitors to experience them firsthand.
ASUS Zenbook Ceraluminum™ Limited Edition: A Tribute to Nature
The Milan exhibition will also debut four limited editions of the ASUS Zenbook laptop featuring special Ceraluminum chassis that draw from natural landscapes. The Ceraluminum Limited Edition collection is inspired by Earth's most breathtaking landscapes, each representing the raw power and beauty that shape our world. From laptops to sleeves and packaging, each finish is a reminder of the ASUS commitment—not just to design, but to a philosophy—to create tools that are as enduring as the landscapes that inspire them.
Ceraluminum is a high-tech ceramic that is an industry-first innovation. ASUS invested four years into finetuning the precise colors, texture, and hardness. No pigment is added throughout the entire process, the distinct colors and porosity are precisely controlled by electric current, voltage, and mineral formula. As a result, it offers unmatched scratch resistance and longevity, with a unique look that pays homage to the natural world that inspired its creation.
Additionally, Ceraluminum is a more sustainable material that is less hazardous to the environment, substituting the acids traditionally employed for aluminum anodization for a new higher voltage method that uses pure water. The process eliminates organic compounds, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and heavy metals from the wastewater, resulting in 100% recyclable material.

Studio INI to create bespoke installation
The themes of the exhibition will be encapsulated by a specially commissioned installation by Studio INI, an experimental design and research studio. The installation will combine design, technology, and engineering with artistic expression to create a kinetic, biomimetic sculpture that reacts to visitors' presence.
Key to the experience is the stimulation of the senses. Visitors will be invited to touch the installation, encountering the tactility of the ASUS Ceraluminum material. Sensors will track these interactions, with the data used to create AI-generated representations of visitors' real-world behavior.
Full details will be announced in the coming months.
Design You Can Feel exhibition world tour
The Milan exhibition is the third Design You Can Feel exhibition, following events in Shanghai and London that showcased material innovation, craftsmanship, and AI. The Milan exhibition will expand on the themes of the previous exhibition at the biggest and most influential design event in the world.
The latest Design You Can Feel exhibition will run from April 8 - 13, 2025.
It will be open to the public at Galleria Meravigli in Milan. For more information, please see https://www.asus.com/ca-en/content/zenbook/

Daron Acemoglu, Chris Bangle and Michele De Lucchi awarded the Ethic Award at the Oscar Pomilio Blumm Forum 'Happy Chaos? Rethinking Ethics in an Age of Global Change'
By GlobeNewswire Published on July 25, 2025, 21:45 IST From geopolitics to technology, from economics to architecture, the 2025 edition of the Oscar Pomilio Blumm Forum gathered three leading voices of the global debate at the Aurum in Pescara to reflect on the profound transformations reshaping our time. The event, titled 'Happy Chaos?', explored the systemic changes redefining institutions, society, and the very language of contemporary culture. The Forum awarded Daron Acemoglu, Chris Bangle, and Michele De Lucchi with the 2025 Ethic Award, in recognition of the ethical value of their contribution to society: individuals who, through research, design, and creativity, have expressed an original, deeply civic vision — capable of pointing to new directions. 'With this Forum, we wanted to explore the fractures of our time through the lens of three visionary minds,' said Franco Pomilio, President of Pomilio Blumm. 'The extraordinary participation and high level of debate confirmed that ethics can—and must—be the driving force behind innovation and global citizenship.' Daron Acemoglu: 'AI must empower people, not replace them' The Forum opened with Daron Acemoglu, Nobel Prize winner for Economics in 2024, professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and author of the landmark book Why Nations Fail , which argues that it is institutions—not geography or culture—that determine the prosperity or decline of nations. In his keynote, Professor Acemoglu focused on the concept of 'Remaking Liberalism', that is also the main topic of a book he is working on, and he warned of the dangers of artificial intelligence designed to replace human labor: 'The current model reinforces the power of elites and increases inequality. We need technology that is built to democratize opportunity.' He called for a new social contract to guide digital development: 'We can build tools that assist teachers, doctors, artisans, and citizens—but it requires democratic rules and long-term vision.' Chris Bangle: 'Design is pulling us away from ourselves' Next to speak was Chris Bangle, the American designer who transformed the aesthetics of BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce, and is considered one of the most influential creatives of our time. Bangle offered a provocative reflection: 'We have built a world where good design means hiding the human hand. But this paradigm is consuming us.' He criticized the impersonal, algorithm-driven aesthetic, stating: 'The meaning of an object lies not only in its form or function, but in the human input behind it. If perfection is inhuman, then imperfection can become value.' Michele De Lucchi: 'Every project is an equation—and the unknown variable is humanity' The Forum concluded with Michele De Lucchi, the renowned Italian architect and designer, founder of AMDL CIRCLE, creator of the iconic Tolomeo lamp and of numerous international architectural projects. 'Today, architecture must be conceived as an environmental installation capable of responding to the unpredictable changes triggered by human beings,' he explained, presenting his personal 'equation' of design. De Lucchi reminded the audience that the role of the designer is not only to shape objects, but also to inspire behaviors, desires, and collective imagination. 'We can no longer design for eternity in a world that is changing so rapidly,' he stated. 'Architecture must be reimagined as something adaptable, sustainable, and deeply human.'

Almadex Provides Review of Canadian Zinc-Silver Assets Including the Logan Project
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Almadex Minerals Ltd. ('Almadex' or the 'Company') (TSX-V: DEX) is pleased to provide a review of its wholly owned Logan Zinc-Silver Project ('Logan') in Yukon Territory, Canada, and highlights of recent developments at the Tim Property, where the Company holds a 2% net smelter return (NSR) royalty. Logan Project Highlights Almadex's Logan Project is located 108 km northwest of Watson Lake in south central Yukon, strategically located near existing infrastructure. The project hosts a significant zinc-silver resource as summarised below: Indicated Mineral Resource of 2.6 million tonnes grading 5.1% zinc and 23.1 g/t silver; Inferred Mineral Resource of 16.9 million tonnes grading 4.3% zinc and 18.2 g/t silver; At-surface high-grade zone with potential amenability to open-pit mining; Expansion potential at depth and along strike. The resource was outlined in the mineral resource estimate disclosed in the Company's January 26, 2023 news release, and is detailed in the technical report titled ' NI 43-101 Technical Report Updated Mineral Resource Estimate Logan Property ', dated March 7, 2023. The report was prepared by Michael Dufresne, (AB, BC), Kristopher J. Raffle, (BC), and Alfonso Rodriguez, (BC), serving as President and Principal Consultant, Principal Geologist, and Senior Geologist, respectively, with APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, Alberta. All authors are independent Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Drill results suggest excellent continuity of mineralization over a significant strike length and to depth, with substantial room for resource expansion both laterally and below the current pit shell. In addition, re-analysis of historical drill core has identified potential economically significant values of indium – a critical metal integral to solar panels, advanced electronics, and next-generation vehicles – averaging 35 ppm and up to 273 ppm. The deposit is hosted in a tabular zone of fracture and vein-hosted mineralization within a granitic intrusion. It spans more than 1,100 metres along strike and up to 150 metres wide, with mineralization starting at surface and extending to at least 275 metres in depth. The terrain is relatively flat with minimal overburden, enhancing its potential for cost-effective extraction. Morgan Poliquin, CEO of Almadex stated: 'Logan represents a meaningful resource of critical minerals in a mining-friendly jurisdiction. Currently Almadex is focussed on a large regional exploration program targeting porphyry lithocap alteration systems for hidden porphyry and epithermal mineralisation in the western United States, but the Logan Zinc-Silver deposit is an important asset to the Company. With its size, grade, and infrastructure access, Logan is an excellent foundation for advancing discussions and potential technical work as we continue to assess our portfolio of assets. As our exploration primary focus is in the USA at this time, we will seek a suitable and qualified partner to advance this exciting project which could fill a role in supporting the global need for critical minerals.' Tim Property NSR – Coeur Partnership Advances an Emerging CRD District Almadex holds a 2% NSR royalty on the Tim Property, located 72 km west of Watson Lake, Yukon and 19 km northeast of Coeur Mining's Silvertip Mine. The property is owned by Silver North Resources Ltd. ('Silver North') and is currently being advanced under an option agreement by Coeur Mining, Inc. ('Coeur'), which can earn up to an 80% interest through staged exploration expenditures and a positive feasibility study. As reported by Silver North, Coeur has invested approximately $1.6 million to date, completing geophysical surveys, property-wide geochemical sampling, trench re-examination, and, most notably, a six-hole, 2,250 metre drill program in 2024. Silver North has reported that recent geological observations by Coeur indicate that Tim may host a productive Carbonate Replacement Deposit (CRD) system similar to Silvertip. These observations include key features such as fugitive calcite veining with characteristic fluorescence, argentiferous manganese oxides, and re-crystallization of host limestones – all hallmarks of a high-quality CRD system. Silver North disclosed in its December 21, 2023 news release the results of Coeur's resampling of historic trenches. Chip sampling from a pair of trenches 150 metres apart yielded results of 4.0 m averaging 468.1 g/t Ag, 21.1% Pb, 0.3% Zn and an 8.8 m averaging 265.0 g/t Ag, 6.7% Pb, 0.9% Zn. In Silver North's May 26, 2025 news release, results were provided from the 2024 drill program conducted by Coeur which successfully confirmed the presence of a Carbonate Replacement Deposit (CRD) style system at Tim. The best drill intercept from the 2024 program returned 3.39 m of 52.8 g/t silver, 0.28 g/t gold, 0.11 % lead and 0.27 % zinc. Silver North also reported that a detailed planning of the 2025 follow up program is underway. Mr. Poliquin stated: 'Our 2% NSR on the Tim property is an important royalty in an area that Coeur is actively developing into an emerging silver-rich CRD district anchored by Silvertip. Coeur's exploration and investment signal the potential for Tim to evolve into a significant silver-lead-zinc asset, enhancing the long-term value of our royalty portfolio.' Strategic Significance to Almadex The combination of the Logan Project's updated mineral resource and Almadex's strategic royalty exposure at Tim provides investors with leverage to two highly prospective assets: Logan: A large, near-surface zinc-silver-indium deposit with resource expansion potential. Tim NSR: Royalty exposure to an actively explored, high-grade CRD system being advanced by Coeur, a leading silver producer, within an emerging district. These developments position Almadex as a unique participant in the evolving critical and precious metals landscape in Yukon and northern British Columbia.
