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.

THE CEREMONY 2025

An unforgettable evening celebrating talent and the future of design

On July 16, 2025, the Teatro Lirico Giorgio Gaber was filled with an atmosphere charged with emotion and pride, hosting the year-end ceremony for the Bachelor’s, Master’s and Intensive's students of the 2024/25 class at Istituto Marangoni Milano Milano Design.

This celebration marked the conclusion of an intense journey, full of study, experimentation, challenges, and growth. The true protagonists were the students, who with determination and passion completed their academic path, now ready to leave their mark on the world of creativity and design.

Words that inspire the future: messages from those who lead and those who dream

Making the moment even more special were the moving speeches by the School Director, Barbara Toscano, and the Director of Education, Sergio Nava, who spoke from the heart with profound and inspiring words that reflected the values and vision of the Institute. What followed was a moving video featuring messages from some of the leading figures in international design, offering a collective message of encouragement to the students — warmly and passionately urging them to face their professional future with confidence and determination.

A particularly moving moment was the speech by the Best Student of the third year of Visual Design, Filippo Rampone, who shared his personal experience with authentic and engaging words, leaving a lasting impression on everyone present.

Not the end of a journey, but the beginning of new stories to tell

The evening concluded with a convivial moment in the theater foyers, where students, families, faculty, and staff gathered to toast together, sharing emotions, memories, and hopes for the future.

An event that celebrated not only the end of a path but above all the beginning of new stories to tell.

Living Marangoni: the student experience beyond the classroom

At Istituto Marangoni Milano Design, education extends far beyond the classroom. The student journey here is not only about acquiring technical skills and academic knowledge—it’s also about building meaningful connections, discovering new passions, and fully experiencing life as part of a vibrant creative community.

Throughout the 2024/2025 academic year, and thanks to the constant support of the Student Desk department, the school offered a diverse and carefully curated calendar of extracurricular activities. These experiences allowed students to explore the city, express themselves, and connect with peers in ways that deeply enriched their time at Marangoni.

Cinema, Culture and Community

Two dedicated movie nights at Anteo Cinema gave students the opportunity to enjoy a shared cultural experience in a welcoming and engaging environment. These evenings encouraged conversation, reflection, and a sense of togetherness outside the academic routine.

Movement and Wellbeing

At Gyru Studio, students participated in a high-energy indoor cycling class, combining physical wellbeing with music and motivation. It was an ideal break from study—revitalizing both body and mind while fostering group spirit.

Italian Culinary Tradition

One of the most appreciated moments was a hands-on cooking class at Mi Scusi, where students learned to prepare traditional Italian pasta. The experience blended culture, gastronomy, and fun in a way that reflected both Milanese life and international community values.

A Day in Florence

A highlight of the year was the day trip to Florence, which included a guided walking tour of the historic center followed by an exclusive aperitivo at Gucci Garden. It was a journey into art, fashion, and Italian heritage, offering students a rich blend of inspiration and social connection.

The Rise of the MID Sport Club

One of the most exciting new additions this year was the creation of the MID Sport Club, an initiative born directly from student enthusiasm and developed with the support of the Student Desk. The club now includes three active groups: five-a-side football, beach volleyball, and basketball. Weekly games and training sessions have become a dynamic space for students to engage socially, stay active, and develop strong teamwork skills.

 

Beyond Education

At Istituto Marangoni Milano Design, life outside the classroom is seen as essential to the learning process. These extracurricular activities are not simply a supplement—they are a key component of a student’s personal and professional development.

Through cultural immersion, physical activity, artistic exploration, and community-building, students are encouraged to grow as individuals and as future designers. In this environment, every experience becomes part of a richer, more holistic education—one that prepares them not only for careers in design, but for life beyond it.
