Via Tortona, Italy

It is one of the must-see streets in Milan, and the whole area around Via Tortona, which goes from Naviglio Grande to Via Solari and Porta Genova, is not to be missed.

The factory and artisan wasteland has today become the center of creative activity, ranging from photography and design studios to theater workshops and cultural foundations. The stars of Fuori Salone, the open air Salone del Mobile event in Via Tortona and its surroundings are, just to name a few: Superstudio Più and Superstudio 13, where there are photography studios and where the shows take place during Fashion Week, the City of Cultures project by architect David Chipperfield, being designed in the former Ansaldo factory; the Arnaldo Pomodoro foundation, dedicated to the great contemporary sculptor in the former Riva & Calzoni office spaces.
