10 Corso Como is a shopping and dining complex in Milan, and combines outlets that show and sell works of art, fashion, music, design, cuisine and culture. It was founded in 1990 by gallerist and publisher Carla Sozzani, actual Vogue Italia editor-in-chief.
The complex began with an art gallery and a bookshop. Other spaces soon followed: a design and fashion store in 1991, the 10 Corso Como Cafè in 1998, a small hotel (with only three rooms) in 2003, and the Roof Garden in 2009.

10 Corso Como, is a rich concept, conceived as a virtual narrative, combining an art gallery, a book shop, and a curation of food, fashion, art, music and lifestyle, made also by the visitors.
