This “pied à terre” in Italy's fashion and design capital was decorated by a young architect with a unique, personal touch. Inside a recently renovated building in Milan's China Town, this one bedroom apartment features a natural oak kitchen in an intentionally neutral space. White walls and resins, offset by natural oak elements, create a minimal elegance that make this typically Milanese space warm and welcoming.

#The neighbourhood
This is one of the best spots to see contemporary Milan, the city's downtown district with its high-rises, the Bosco Verticale and Corso Como, boasting stylish bars and famous night clubs. It is a few steps away from via Paolo Sarpi, the heart of China Town, a swirl of colours and scents. The Chinese restaurants are excellent, but the historic shops and wine bars are the highlight of this neighbourhood, with their unparalleled delicacies.
