Milan Guide

A former family home designed by Piero Portaluppi is now the headquarters of Massimo de Carlo gallery, which shows 20th century and contemporary art. Come for the exhibition, stay for the amazing multi-colored marble interiors.

Color is the main character at interior designer Sophie Wannenes Brera-district shop and gallery, where everything from the hand towels to the curtains are available to take home.

Design darlings Quincoces-Dragò are the masterminds behind this Navigli-area gallery, which shows chic mid-century Italian and Scandinavian furniture in a swoon-inducing former monastery.

Contemporary art and photography found their ideal fashion-district home in this three-floor gallery (including roof terrace) just off Montenapoleone. See sister gallery Moshe Tabibnia for the world’s most gorgeous Rennaissance tapestries.
