10 CORSO COMO fashion design concept store, in Milan

10 Corso Como is a multifunctional concept store dedicated to art, fashion, music, design, cuisine and culture
10 Corso Como was founded in 1990 in Milan, Italy, by gallerist and publisher Carla Sozzani.
It has been described as "a so-called concept store, a mini lifestyle emporium", and has been identified as an inspiration for stores in London and Paris
The complex began with an art gallery and a bookshop. Other spaces soon followed: a design and fashion store in 1991, the 10 Corso Como Cafè in 1998, a small hotel (with only three rooms) in 2003, the Roof Garden in 2009.
10 Corso Como and the 10 Corso Como logo are designed by American artist Kris Ruhs.
In 2002 10 Corso Como opened in Tokyo in partnership with Comme des Garçons, designed by Rei Kawakubo and Kris Ruhs.
In 2008 10 Corso Como opened in Seoul in partnership with Samsung Cheil, Samsung Group, designed by Kris Ruhs
A must see when in Milan.

How to get there

ps.
please note: the entrance is sort of hidden, when you reach it just go in, cross the courtyard, ignore the restaurant on your right (or maybe not!) and get in the shop, at your left!

when there don't forget to explore the wonderful Galleria Carla Sozzani , a wonderful exibit space as well as a very interesting bookshop.

happy day dreaming!
