10 locations to discover at the Fuorisalone

The Fuorisalone in Milan is one of the most suitable moments to wander around the city discovering corners that you had never noticed, to explore locations that are closed to the public the rest of the year or even to take advantage of seeing places that often change face. We have selected 12 Design Week events that invade new, exclusive, in progress locations and so on and so forth.


Villa Borsani, ph. Piergiorgio Sorgetti

Alcova
The seventh edition of Alcova - an international platform for contemporary design - will open to the public April 15-21 in the unprecedented setting of two iconic villas in the Milan metropolitan area, Villa Borsani and Villa Bagatti Valsecchi.

Design Variations

Design Variations
It is on the Darsena that MoscaPartners selections for the 4th edition of Design Variations are located: a hidden garagae that preserves the Milanese vocation for transformation. Nathalie Du Pasquier welcomes with a site-specific work, while the design studio Park Associati signs the modular set-up with a hemp cement brick scenography. Debates, meetings, and a special Garage Sale update the edition daily.

Bagno Diurno

Bagno Diurno
Bagno Diurno is an immersive installation that invites us to re-embrace the dimension of collective and shared life, through the involvement of body care. The project proposes the redevelopment and reactivation of the abandoned building of the Ex Casa dell'Acqua in via Giacosa 30. Curated by Studio Latte e Finemateria, it intends to create a place of dialogue and sociality for the city of Milan, through not only an exhibition project unpublished, but also a calendar of events that will take place during the Design Week on the proposed themes.
