May 2025

With a makeover by architect Peter Marino and an entire floor dedicated to home decor, Louis Vuitton's Milan flagship makes a striking statement in the global capital of design.

MOLTO MAISON

Louis Vuitton's four-story Milan flagship, designed by architect Peter Marino, features an inner courtyard and collectible 20thcentury furniture.

The timing spoke volumes when French heritage brand Louis Vuitton reopened its Milan flagship this spring, during the city's annual design week. The four-level store, entirely reimagined by Elle Decor A-List architect Peter Marino, was instantly packed with shoppers, curious design devotees, and fashion fans. Designed around a typically Milanese courtyard, the flagship has a staircase inspired by the city's famed Villa Necchi Campiglio, departments for everything from fashion and high jewelry to furniture and tableware, and a pair of restaurants serving up pasta and tiramisu decorated with the LV monogram.

imageMilanese landscape architect Marco Bay incorporated greenery throughout, including hanging plant spheres and trees in the Da Vittorio Café Louis Vuitton.

They happen before the hammer comes down, in private rooms amid hushed conversations, as specialists explain why they are the best guardians of invaluable treasures. The setting for these exchanges matters immensely—and at Sotheby's, that space just got an upgrade.
