Louis Vuitton at Palazzo Serbelloni — Louis Vuitton Objets Nomades Milan 2026 (2026)

Palazzo Serbelloni, a historic Milanese palace, hosted Louis Vuitton's Objets Nomades presentation during Milan Design Week, setting furnishings and trunks among period interiors.

The venue

Palazzo Serbelloni is a noble palace in central Milan, built in the eighteenth century and still used for receptions, cultural programming and private events. Its state rooms form an enfilade of connected salons, with decorated ceilings, mirrors, carved doorways and polished floors. The interiors are preserved rather than neutral, so any installation placed inside them is read against the architecture and the room sequence itself.

How the space was used

The presentation ran as a route through named rooms. The Giangaleazzo room served as the entry point, introducing the Art Deco reference. The Napoleonica room held the Pierre Legrain Hommage series, with furniture, dining pieces and textiles shown alongside archival bookbinding material. The visit closed at the Louis Vuitton store on Via Monte Napoleone, where a coloured-glass Malle Courrier Lozine was displayed.

Why it works here

Rooms of this kind give furniture and objects a domestic, historical scale that a fair booth cannot provide, and the enfilade layout supports sequential storytelling. During design week, audiences already move between palazzi and showrooms, so a palace address reads as a cultural venue rather than a retail stop.
