ICON at Milan Design Week 2025

THE MILAN DESIGN Week 2025 Guide by ICON is a digital city guide dedicated to Milan, the mecca for Italian culture, art and design. 

Uncovering the very best of what the city has to offer during Milan Design Week, ICON’s curated city guide, produced with the help of Milanese locals and some of the industry’s finest writers and creatives, provides design lovers with a simple overview of what’s happening during one of the most exciting weeks in the design calendar. 

From must-see installations at Triennale Milano and Alcova to unmissable events and highlights from Brera and the city, to hidden gems and first-class dining experiences, discover what to see in Italy’s northern metropolis and the ample ways to get off the beaten path.

This year, ICON is also pleased to announce a special partnership with Salone del Mobile, the global benchmark for the furniture and design industry. Celebrated for its business and cultural impact, Salone del Mobile fosters collaboration and showcases cutting-edge design with a focus on sustainability, quality, and creativity in a similar spirit to ICON.
