“Milano, le sue bellezze invece di metterle a portata d'occhi e d'ammirazione, te le nasconde, costringendoti ad andarle a scoprire.”
The book offers a glimpse into Milan hidden treasure yet to be discovered. Through a non-chronological approach, the travellers are invited to discover the architecture, history, and personas that tell the Milanese story of the last century. The book floats between a monograph and an artistic work, drawing the reader into a secret layer of the city which is not exposed at first sight. By the use of unconventional double-page spreads, unique printing and cutting techniques, and the combination of photographs, poems and quotes “Milano Nascosta” is much more than a pop-up book.
