Biblioteca Nazionale<br />
Braidense<br />
Whether you have enough time to sit down<br />
and read the antique encyclopedias or just<br />
five minutes between shows to peak in, this<br />
18th century library is one of those secrets<br />
of Milan that makes you realize that the<br />
old saying is true- Milan’s beauty is hidden.<br />
Pick up a book and take a smart-looking<br />
selfie, then head to Milan’s major league<br />
art museum, the Pinacoteca di Brera, in the<br />
same building.<br />

Fondazione Franco<br />
Albini<br />
You know Milan is Italy’s fashion town, but<br />
don’t forget– you’re also in a world capital<br />
of design. Get intimate with one of the<br />
city’s great designers, Franco Albini, who<br />
created the Veliero bookshelf and Cassina’s<br />
Tre Pezzi couch, among other modernist<br />
masterpieces. Hours are limited, as with all<br />
of the architects’ studios in Milan, but an<br />
appointment gets you a guided tour of this<br />
rigorously designed world.<br />
