Brera is Italy’s first design district, playing host to over 90 events during the busy week. Hands-down one of the most beautiful parts of Milan with world class design (and fabulous people) watching, Brera Design District is simply unmissable. Densely populated cobble stone streets are lined with high-end showrooms, galleries, restaurants and bars, with some pretty amazing shopping sprinkled in between – if you have the time, and the cold hard cash.
There is always a lot to see and do in Brera. Some of this year’s highlights were the truly sublime Dimore Gallery (see our full article here); Boffi celebrated their 80th year with an extraordinary kitchen designed by Patricia Urquiola; Nendo created a superb installation for COS titled “Space Dipped Shirts” which celebrated the iconic white shirt of the much loved Swedish fashion brand; Atelier Clerici at Palazzo Clerici was one of the best destinations of the entire week (separate report can be seen here); HAY & WRONG FOR HAY presented Mini Market, an on-site pop-up shop where visitors could purchase HAY accessories and textiles.
