Technology and vintage are the common
denominators of the concept for this 1,500 m2
mega store distributed on three levels, the largest
in the world. Seven-metre-high curved shopwindows,
a giant denim-wall at the entrance
with 5000 jeans on show, a large spiral-shaped
staircase in hand-welded metal sheet: these
are the most evident “signs” of this project by
the Diesel Interior Design Team. Apart from
lines and accessories, this space also offers wi-fi
workstations for the brand’s fans so that they
can shop on-line, as well as a bookshop corner, a
digital “magic mirror” to view your own profile
at 360°, a desk where every week you can find
DJs and international live performances.

Ferruccio Laviani.

In a historical building from the late 1700s,
a new concept for men in the boutique of the
fashion duo: from clothing to total, a drink,
a light lunch or an aperitif at the bar, in
collaboration with Martini&Rossi (8.30-
21.30 h). 1.700 square meters, of which are
700 for clothing. The structural project made
by David Chipperfield (January 2003) was

to indications by Domenico Dolce and Stefano
Gabbana with the collaboration of Ferruccio
Laviani and the studio Piuarch. Il Barbiere,
opened again on corso Venezia 13 with its own
entry, still shaves the old way, according to
