The Most Stunning Installations From The Milan Design Week 2019

The best known week in the design world was filled with interesting things to see. This time we show those we thought were the most stunning installations from the Milan Design Week 2019.

We are already used to the fact that in a certain week at the beginning of each year, the capital of Italy is transformed into a world of design and culture, full of interesting places and incredible things to know. Milan Design Week 2019 has already passed and we are here to show you the most visited places, and those most stunning, considering our tastes. Let’s see!

House Of Job – Porta Venezia

When setting up its first permanent space, Studio Job, the well-known Dutch art and design studio, gives the space the name House Of Job. It is located in Porta Venezia and opens with a sculptural exhibition of new works and classics from the studio itself, from its 20 years of existence, and a few more collaborations with brands such as Qeeboo, Seletti and others. Other articles will be exhibited in venues such as Railway Pavilion of the National Museum of Science and Technology “Leonardo da Vinci” and in Rho Fiera.

Bagatti Valsecchi – Via Gesù 5

The Bagatti Valsecchi Museum opened its doors during the Milan Design Week 2019, and seven international brands known for the high craftsmanship performed invaded the space. Milanese designer Katrin Herden has transformed the magnificent museum into a “Palace of Wonders”, combining the Renaissance and neo-renaissance furniture of the museum itself with its contemporary decor accessories, forming a space worthy of visiting and wanting to return. The result is seven dazzling spaces, rare to see, each with the organization of different brands, including Formacemento, Sohil, and the works of designers such as Marialaura Rossiello, Bruno Moinard and Pierre Gonalons.

Ventura Centrale – Via Ferrante Aporti 9

Ventura Centrale arrives at its 3rd edition with long queues for entrance, which proves its success from previous editions. There is an expansion of its spaces thanks to the recovery and reopening of six other vaults of the Warehouses of the Central Station. During the restoration works of these areas under the railway, some hidden treasures of the history of Milan were found. This year there are 17 facilities of designers and companies from all over the world, including Dutch designer Maarten Baas, “I Think Therefore I Was”, or brands such as AGC Inc., Weltevree, Lensvelt, Rapt Studio and many others. At night, with with a different concept, there is a space for music with the DJs and producers of the Apollo Fest.

Palazzo Litta – Corso Magenta 24

The old Baroque Palace of Corso Magenta came alive during the Milan Design Week 2019, with the presentation of 22 international exhibitors. Several installations were present, among which the students of École Camondo, who brought the Theater del Giorno, an alphabetical study to illustrate to the world the profession of interior architect, also students of the Polytechnic School of Design of the SPD, experienced the XL EXTRALIGHT, material in vogue in recent years. From Italian carpets to Japanese textiles, the palace has been full of talents from various parts of the world. Echo Pavilion, for example, by Pezo von Ellrichshausen, is a polished steel architecture that enlarges the space reflecting the colonnade outside, like a mirror, while from within you can contemplate a portion of the sky.

The city of Milan is beautiful anyway, however, these are the most stunning installations from the Milan Design Week 2019, which made it even more attractive to visit the Italian capital.
