What is it?
Nina Yashar is one of Milan’s top design dealers, having made a name for herself collecting and selling 20th-century Italian furniture. She has operated her gallery on Via della Spiga since 1979, but it was only recently, in 2015, that she opened her depot, a massive warehouse showcasing her collection of vintage and contemporary design pieces that she has assembled over the years.
Is it worth visiting?
It’s a veritable treasure trove, one whose configuration was inspired by Milan's famous Teatro alla Scala: three stories of black metal balconies surround a central atrium, each with its own distinct units or room sets. Even if you’re not looking to buy, Yashar’s impeccable collection is sure to inspire.
Time Out tip
If you happen to visit during Milan Design Week (Salone del Mobile Milano), which takes place every April, be sure to schedule a visit to the depot, which will be buzzing and ripe for people-watching.
