As every year, there is no right or wrong way to experience Milan Design Week, the press and the great enthusiasts will have a well-defined programme, while some will prefer to get lost in the streets and discover events in a random way...

For those in between, however, we have spotted several events that we think are interesting or even crucial to see and drop by. Discover our ideal programme of 20 events and more...

The Milan 2019 programme in detail

Alcova & Alcova Sassetti

Currently operating as a network of exhibition spaces at several locations in Milan and the surrounding area, Alcova is putting forgotten places of historical significance back onto the scene and temporarily reconfiguring them as exhibition venues. During the design week in Milan, two sites will be open to visitors: Alcova and Alcova Sassetti, with about sixty designers on display. Above, Supaform.
