The Istituto Giuseppe Toniolo di Studi Superiori
Milano Outside/Inside, a journey through Valextra for Milano.
Situated on Via Santa Valeria in the shadow of the Università Cattolica, what was once the building of the spinning company Filatura Cascami Seta is now the seat of the The Istituto Giuseppe Toniolo di Studi Superiori and widely regarded as a hidden Milanese gem.
"I love Milan because it is a mysterious city that also embraces my youthful memories. It is incredibly Italian, but it's international, too, making it a unique city, filled with contrasts. There's also something melancholic about it, which, personally, I adore."
Carla Bruni, pictured with the Milano handbag at Istituto Giuseppe Toniolo di Studi Superiori.
Location
Reimagined through the genius lens of Piero Portaluppi, the Istituto Giuseppe Toniolo di Studi Superiori is an icon of reinvention, just like its home city. Home to a legendary double-height pentagon-shaped atrium, a splendid mosaic floor, wrought-iron balustrades and lamps, and stucco decorations it is a Milanese masterpiece inside and out. They’re credentials that are reflected in the Milano Handbag, our ode to Milanese excellence crafted through a meticulous artisanal process that is a modern-day story of refinement.
