Your guide to Design
in Milan, everyday.

2025 marks the centenary of the Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes in Paris, the event that marked the establishment of the "Style 1925" or Art Deco. To celebrate this anniversary, the exhibition will present the public with extraordinary examples of Italian and European decorative arts, from glassware to porcelain to majolica, from textiles to furniture and jewellery, as well as paintings, sculptures, drawings and advertising posters, to restore as much as possible the climate and atmosphere of an unrepeatable and fascinating era. 

An unprecedented exhibition project curated by Alberto Salvadori dedicated to Jasper Morrison. The exhibition presents an installation that celebrates Jasper Morrison's essential approach to design: twelve chairs floating in the exhibition space, selected from the many he designed, and twelve photographic wall compositions representing archetypal objects.

A leading figure in the worlds of art and architecture, Nanda Vigo was close to the German “Zero Group” art movement and collaborated with such notable figures as Piero Manzoni, Lucio Fontana, Giò Ponti, and many others. Her work played a central role in the development of Italian modernist art, design and architecture.

The exhibition explores the eclecticism of a woman capable of combining rational thought and esotericism, an approach that was rigorous and rationalist but also exuberant and almost baroque.

The exhibition is extended until July 12, 2025.

The exhibition examines the creative process leading up to the making of a film by exploring storyboards and other materials such as moodboards, drawings and sketches, scrapbooks and notebooks, annotated scripts and photographs. Set up in the spaces of the Observatory, it includes more than a thousand elements created between 1930 and 2024 by more than 50 authors including directors, cinematographers, artists, graphic designers, animators, choreographers and other figures related to film and video production.

The exhibition explores the visionary bond between Joe Colombo and Kartell that combines innovation, color and light. Through three thematic sections, it recounts a design that anticipates the future and remains relevant today. A journey between functionality and aesthetics, also made possible thanks to Studio Colombo's Historical Archive.

A thematic exhibition curated by the Norman Foster Foundation addresses the housing crisis in emergency contexts, showcasing Foster’s work on Indian slums and temporary settlements for displaced people through videos, drawings, images and two 1:1 scale shelter prototypes, and the Affordable Future Mock-Up and the Displaced Communities Mock-Up developed with the Essential Home Research Project.

In a fragmented world design can no longer just focus on creating shapes. It must address the fractures of the present, understand how they are created, and propose new connections. This need gives rise to Inequalities, the 24th International Exhibition of Triennale Milano.

The exhibition spans over 7,500 square meters, with eight main exhibitions, ten special projects, an international participation section, a wide public program, and an urban tour across Milan’s districts.

The Museum of Italian Design celebrates the centenary of Triennale Milano with a new path that starts from the foundation of the institution in 1923 and ends with the development of technological, material and social research that has transformed the identity, aesthetics and main features of design Italian. The exhibition itinerary presents over 300 objects from the permanent collection which, when related to the history of the institution, tell the story of Italian design through the reconstruction of some domestic interiors. A journey that culminates in the Design Platform, a space that hosts temporary exhibitions of young designers and new forms.

The Museum of Italian Design is a Permanent Exhibition of Triennale MIlano

The exhibition DesignUP - seamless solutions is the new thematic in-depth exploration of the permanent collection of the Compasso d'Oro award that aims to represent each product as the result of a complex system, solutions of continuity in fact, that give iconic Italian design objects their uniqueness. The exhibition project highlights the most specific features of what we now call Made in Italy, and how design culture has permeated all the different stages of the country's development. 

The exhibition-through the story of the displays in the Foundation's rooms-brings out the aspect that many recognize in Achille: playfulness.
From an idea of Giovanna Castiglioni, Achille's youngest daughter, arose the desire to put on display the games of when she was a child. Designer Marco Marzini has created inside the Fondazione Achille Castiglioni a dynamic display with the pleasure of exhibiting unpublished materials, sometimes fragile, unobtainable, sometimes common to other people's childhoods, and will be a real pleasure to find a way, in some cases, for visitors to try out the games.
