Architecture has a great impact on our daily lives. Milan is the most important laboratory of modern and contemporary architecture in Italy.
You go in a tick from Ancient Roman stones to the rising city.
On the Roman city was built the medieval and then ducal, Spanish, Austrian, French, and post-unification one. Other stones, other walls, other stories stratified, one above the other.
Over the past decade, and with the boost of the World Expo in 2015, Milan lived a period of extraordinary change.
Two major urban regeneration projects, Porta Nuova and CityLife, and specific interventions as the Vertical Forest, Fondazione Prada, Feltrinelli, Bocconi University, Mudec and the Bicocca neighbourhood have seen the work of the best-known Italian and international architects.
