Note for your diary – 6th December – Design Museum Opens in Milan

Apparently, on the 6th of December a new museum of Italian Design will open in Milan. The only trouble is that I cannot find the address! I’m not sure whether the new design museum will be located near Parco Sempione close to the city centre, or out in the Bovisa area of Milan.

When I do manage to pin down the exact location, I will post it here.

Why bother visiting an Italian design museum? Easy. Italian design is about as innovative as design gets. And Milan is filled with shops showing off what Italian designers can do. There are spectacular kitchens, brilliant bathrooms and intriguing bathroom fittings, and then there is the fabulous furniture. Not to mention all the ornaments, lights, kitchenware and a host of other stuff.

I shall be writing about various examples in future posts.
