ARCH ON TOUR 70_MILAN

Architecture.Design.City

and cool re-use concepts!
OCTOBER 24 - 27, 2024

c

To start the tour, we visit the area of ​​the former Milan 2015 Expo site as an interesting example of reuse concepts, including the "Social Village" with residential buildings by Mario Cucinella, among others, who is currently implementing the Italian pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025. New districts with buildings by international architects such as H&dM, Zaha Hadid and Daniel Liebeskind as well as the new campus of the Bocconi University of SANAA enrich the historic city. Likewise inspiring are high-quality art and design exhibitions in outstanding locations of former industrial halls, such as the Pirelli Hangar and the Fondazione Prada as well as the conversion of the Fondazione Luigi Rovati with its contemporary interventions by Mario Cucinella.

Informative city walks, refreshing strolls through fascinating landscape gardens and authentic cuisine accompany the cheerful tour, which, in addition to the dense program, also offers time for individual leisure time - not least on the terrace and by the pool of our chic hotel. We look forward to seeing you again at this perfect extended-summer-tour!
