Istituto Marangoni Milano opens its doors inside the iconic Palazzo Turati
In the ever-evolving map of Milan’s fashion scene, a new spot emerges in the City's history.
Istituto Marangoni Milano is moving into Palazzo Turati, a 19th-century landmark reborn as the School’s new creative headquarters for fashion, beauty, and luxury hospitality.
This is a call to dream bigger, design louder, and learn surrounded by the grandeur of a City that lives and breathes style.
150 Years of Milanese Legacy
Housed in the iconic Palazzo Turati, a 19th-century landmark born from the entrepreneurial and artistic vision of Count Francesco Turati - where history doesn’t whisper, it speaks fluently.
Made for Creators, Built for the Future
From photo labs and content studios to 3D-printing workshops and digital classrooms, the new campus is a living lab where fashion, technology, and creativity converge in every square metre.
In the Beating Heart of Milan
Steps from the Duomo, a stroll from the Galleria, and immersed in the cultural and commercial energy of Italy’s fashion capital - because location isn’t just a detail, it’s part of the experience.
Built in 1876 by Count Francesco Turati – a cotton magnate, art patron, and visionary – Palazzo Turati was born in a Milan on the rise. The city was busy reinventing itself as Italy’s beating cultural and economic heart, and this building stood at the crossroads of ambition and artistry.
Turati was a cultural curator: he invested in railways, supported La Scala, and embodied a Milanese spirit that still echoes through the palace’s high ceilings and stately arches. At the time, nearby icons like the Corriere della Sera and the Poldi Pezzoli Museum were also taking root – turning this corner of the city into a hub of influence and innovation.
The neo-Renaissance architecture subtly mirrors the elegance of the nearby Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, one of Milan’s most iconic landmarks.
The new campus is a fully immersive creative ecosystem, built to reflect the Industry’s most dynamic transformations.
