featured in Sights & Sites

The Triennale is a design museum and events venue located in the Palazzo d'Arte, on the grounds of Milan's Parco Sempione. The Palazzo's ground floor open-plan showroom has a surface area of around 2000 m2 and was once home to Milan's huge design cultural event held every 3 years.

The museum hosts exhibitions and events which highlight contemporary Italian design, covering urban planning, architecture, music and media arts with an emphasis on the relationship between art and industry.

There's also a permanent collection of significant contemporary Italian design. At least two major design-themed temporary exhibitions are held in the Palazzo at any one time. The Palazzo is also home to a high-quality design bookshop and the Triennale Design Cafe.
