In celebration of all things Milan at Salone del Mobile, we check out 5 of the fashion capital's modern buildings

Regular visitors to Italy's fashion capital have already seen Leonardo da Vinci's 'The Last Supper' at Santa Maria delle Grazie and marveled at the sheer beauty and size of the Gothic Duomo di Milano. What's next? The city has its fair share of modern marvels, seen throughout the city that house galleries, offices, schools and homes. Though cobbled streets lead you to Milan's charming old facades and storied crevices, there's nothing like a fresh burst of creativity to liven things up. Take a virtual tour above.
