Locals, interior decorators, and design savvy customers alike will be excited to learn that leading Italian heritage furniture company, Molteni&C, is officially opening its doors to 9 Via Manzoni—a historic palazzo in the heart of Milan.

Those familiar with the iconic retail street—which culminates at the famed Piazza della Scalla— will recall the large branded scaffolding that’s been concealing the beautiful period building’s façade during extensive renovations. Today, it’s finally open to the public.

Designed by world renowned designer and in-house creative director Vincent Van Duysen, the new flagship will not only serve as the brand’s most visible outpost but also expand the brand conceptually.

Van Duysen envisioned the property—which covers an impressive 30,000 square feet over seven stories— to be the chic home of an art and design collector. The dynamic narrative infuses the experience of each space, one unfolding onto the next as a hybrid residence-meets-gallery concept showcasing everything from Molteni&C’s sought-after designer furniture collections to the brand’s innovative kitchen designs and storage solutions.

The opening caps off a busy year for the brand. In 2024, Molteni&C celebrated its 90th anniversary and rang in the occasion with the reissue of a beloved Gio Ponti sofa, a book launch with Rizzoli, and a collaboration with the Mandarin Oriental in Beverly Hills and New York City.

After nearly a century in business, it’s clear that this Italian heritage company is poised to forge new paths.
