Milan / Swimming Pool

Inaugurated on May 3, 1934, the Roberto Cozzi indoor swimming pool was the first entirely covered pool in Italy - a masterpiece of the engineer and architect Luigi Lorenzo Secchi (1899-1992). It's possible to book just for the day by the website www.milanosport.it and, for summer days, you can also use the terrace.

Milan / Cafe

Nice atmosfere, cool staff, opened from the first time in the morning til late night... Iter is a good choice for breakfast with coffee and brioche (the way Italians call the croissant), working days lunch (the have a fixed menu) and also for drinks - the menu changes seasonally and has always interesting options. Thanks to its location in a small street between the naviglio grande and pavese, the tourists somehow don't find it.

Milan / Bar

Cozy ambient inside, but also with tables on the street, Champagne Socialist is a good place to try natural wines from Europe. You can also go there just to buy a bootle (or more, of course) and drink it at home.

Milan / Cafe

Loste Café is a Danish bakery opened by Stefano Ferraro and Lorenzo Cioli, two Italians who met at the star restaurant Noma, in Copenhagen. It's a simple (but with a good taste!) coffee shop, with amazing cinnamon rolls - Lorenzo is the former head of pastry in Noma - and a good option for a healthy quick lunch.

Milan / Restaurant

Giacomo ristorante, bistrot... They are all located on the same street, Via Pasquale Sottocorno, but the rosticceria is the more, let's say, "easy-going" (and the cheapest) of the three. It's a good place for lunch and dinner - ask for a table at the "giardino interno".

Milan / Restaurant

I consider e/c natural wine shop a hidden treasure in Milan. Inside a building with an "Emergency" (that is actually an ONG) plaque outside, the first thing one might think is that is a hospital. Once passing the wall, there's a cute internal square, with Basilica di Sant'Eustorgio view. You can sit both inside or outside, which a strongly recommend for spring and summer days. A nice place for just passing by to grab a bottle of wine and drink it at home, having a glass of wine (they have many options) or enjoying a relaxed evening.

Milan / Art Director

I am an art director and set designer. I believe that there is a strong correlation between the worlds of design, art and fashion. That in order for you to create innovative and lasting ideas you must approach projects with a fluid and artistic mindset, as opposed to a more strategic or business-minded thought process.

Milan / Photographer

Alessandro Furchino Capria (Turin, 1982) has developed a refined eye for photography along with solid lighting and composition skills make up for a photography permeated with essential, pure, classically combined, and intimate references that merge into his natural signature style, finding beauty in capturing harmony and balance in proportions. Light and accurate color balance are the main components in all of his works. Alessandro’s work has been displayed in globally relevant exhibitions such as the New York Photo Festival - Photoworld and at La Triennale di Milano and his work has been published on renowned international magazines.
