Face it : Milano just wasn’t the complete shopping spree without this new D&G showroom. With a surface of  5.000 square meters, the imposing D&G building in Milano, Italy is a combination of classic elements and modern influences. Designed by architectural studio Piuarch, the construction is actually a contemporary building juxtaposed over a ’900 one. Here are some words from the architects that best describe the project’s features: ” The facades of the building housing the showrooms are entirely glazed and feature a series of vertical, closely spaced louvers of opal glass. This membrane, made of glass, acts as a filter, softly diffusing the daylight through the building and serving at the same time as a sunshade.” – via +Mood
