Milano The School of Design

The School of Design

Milan is synonymous with design, and no wonder. It unites a rich history with a continued vital role in the global design landscape that is always respectful of the past but has an eye towards the future. This unique approach to research and experimentation is also reflected in the Milano Design School, where participants will be challenged with projects from artisanal furniture to high-end inspirational design for interiors, products, and visual graphics. All courses at Istituto Marangoni Milano Design School are underpinned by a contemporary aesthetic approach, and a heavy dose of fashion cross-pollination, thanks to the luxury and fashion found around every corner. This design culture is closely linked with the city’s design district and the community of creative designers who are drawn to study, work and live in this fertile environment, leading to an exclusive mix of cutting-edge design paired with new technologies, and an eye for commerce that successfully combines theory with practice.

Seven Visual Design Students Selected by RED-EYE

Seven third-year Visual Design (VD3) students had their projects selected by curator Gloria Maria Cappelletti. Their works were published on RED-EYE, an international platform that explores contemporary visual languages, within the section Pixels, Pulse and AI Dreams.

International Awards and Recognition

These students not only stand out on research platforms such as RED-EYE but also regularly win prestigious awards and are selected as finalists in major international competitions. This achievement highlights the quality of their education and the high level of competitiveness they have reached alongside the best emerging talents worldwide.

The Strength of a Learning Method

Such success stems from a curriculum built with great care: not only theory and technique, but also experimentation, critical thinking, and the ability to work on real-world projects. The teaching approach encourages students to bring out their individual talents, transforming them into concepts and visual solutions that stand out for originality and impact.

Real Opportunities for Students

Being selected by a platform like RED-EYE—or winning awards and recognition—means gaining international visibility, with projects that directly engage the global creative community. At the same time, these experiences open valuable professional connections, allowing students to network with curators, brands, and industry professionals.
Each selection also strengthens their portfolios with experiences that have tangible value for their future careers. Ultimately, these achievements enhance the young designers’ professional credibility, validating their skills and confirming the strength of the educational approach that shaped them.

The Future of Design Begins Here

Every project becomes a springboard, transforming the academic journey into a successful career. This confirms how the school’s education and teaching method prepare young designers to emerge and stand out on the international stage.

Short Courses 2025: intensive training and new perspectives

This year, the Short Courses at Istituto Marangoni Milano Design introduced exciting new opportunities, expanding the academic offer with programmes that combine tradition and innovation. Alongside the well-established courses in Interior DesignInterior Design for Professionals, and Product Design, a brand-new and highly relevant programme was launched: AI for Design.

Innovation as a creative ally

The new course dedicated to artificial intelligence offered students a unique chance to explore the relationship between technology and creativity. Throughout the lessons, participants learned to use advanced digital tools and experiment with generative design, opening up new scenarios where imagination and innovation meet.

Learning beyond the classroom

The experience was not limited to theory: each student had the opportunity to develop a complete project while enriching their learning through a series of exclusive visits. From the Step Museum to the showrooms of internationally renowned brands and designers such as CappelliniEdraGessi, and Marazzi, every stop offered a tangible encounter with industry excellence.
Adding even more value to the programme were exclusive workshops, including one led by Cel Paduleski, who shared his expertise and vision of contemporary design with students.

 

Concentrated and flexible training

Short Courses are designed as a true concentration of education: within just a few weeks, students can acquire the fundamentals of a field, enhance existing skills, or simply explore a new passion. Their flexible structure makes them ideal for beginners in design, art, and fashion, as well as for professionals seeking to update their knowledge. For many, they also become a springboard toward longer study paths or future career opportunities.

A celebratory conclusion

The most exciting moment, however, comes at the end: after intense days of lessons, visits, and shared experiences, students receive official recognition for their achievements. Each conclusion becomes a small celebration, a joyful occasion that reflects not only the goals accomplished, but also the enthusiasm and passion these courses inspire.
