Design Week 2026: Fuorisalone Highlights from Torre Velasca to Palazzo Litta
During Milan Design Week 2026, the Fuorisalone offers a rich itinerary starting from Torre Velasca, designed by BBPR in the 1950s. On the 16th floor, Visteria Foundation presents 'Polish Modernism. A Struggle for Beauty,' curated by Federica Sala and Anna Maga, featuring historical Polish design pieces and contemporary creations. Also at Torre Velasca, 'Warsaw-Sao Paulo-Milan: il modernismo brasiliano di Jorge Zalszupin' traces the career of the Polish-born Brazilian modernist. On the 25th floor, a secret ephemeral tea room by Cromo offers panoramic views of Milan. Nearby, the cloisters of Università Statale host installations by Interni magazine under the theme 'Materiae,' involving over 50 architects, designers, and companies. Highlights include giant parmesan forms, colorful gorillas, and a yacht reconstructed in semi-transparent fabric by Piero Lissoni for Sanlorenzo. In via San Senatore, the Convey collective by Simple Flair occupies a five-story building with over twenty international brands. At Palazzo Litta, MoscaPartners Variations presents 'Metamorphosis in Motion' by Lebanese architect Lina Ghotmeh, a playful fuchsia labyrinth in the Cortile d'Onore. The itinerary also includes Galleria Rossana Orlandi, a historic Fuorisalone venue, where the theme is the door as a threshold. The article is a collaboration between Artribune and MSI computers.
