Milan, the capital of design
It’s 6.30 p.m.: Macef is closing up and Milan is just starting its day.
It’s not by chance that Macef takes place right in Milan.
Milan is one of the world's design capitals.
The home city and place of work of great designers such as Gio Ponti, Bruno
Munari, Joe Colombo, Piergiacomo and Achille Castiglioni, and many more. Here are some suggestions to
experience the way of life and enjoy the atmosphere of Milan, a vibrant and cosmopolitan city and the capital
of design:
- Take a walk along the road via
Tortona, former industrial area filled with designer ateliers, showrooms, restaurants and night clubs.
- Via Ventura, the new center of design in Milan: from the headquarters of Abitare magazine to the
Polytechnic School of Design where Bruno Munari held lessons, an innovative street for architecture and
contents.
- And if you need a little distraction, there are thousands of night clubs waiting for you on the
Milan nightlife scene
.
