Porta Venezia In Design

A Milan itinerary for the Design Week to combine design&art, food&wine with Liberty Architecture heritage.

PORTA VENEZIA IN DESIGN is an itinerary divided into ‘three’: showrooms, stores and companies featuring new design and art, the food&wine itinerary, which finds space in some selected bars and restaurants, guided tours of the Liberty facades, organized in collaboration with FAI – Fondo Ambiente Italiano.

The idea of this circuit is to highlight places, sometimes 'hidden' in courtyards, other facing the road: design and furnishing companies, hospitality and leisure with good food and wine, architectural companies and workshops. Within the cultural aspect, which highlights the Liberty architecture heritage, revealing the venue has not been accessible for years – as the Albergo Diurno Venezia, now opened thanks to Delegazione Milano FAI – Fondo Ambiente Italiano. Design as a link among the various realities.
