Born in 1943 and raised in the town of Cassano Magnago, about 25 miles northwest of Milan, Rossana Orlandi had an education that was simple and quiet. After having worked more than 20 years in fashion, as a consultant for important labels such as Giorgio Armani and Donna Karan or for her family company, in 2002 she decided to transfer her passion for design as a private collector into an innovative gallery, a platform where she could showcase her personal idea of design and lifestyle. She has been working as a curator for several exhibitions in Italy and abroad and she also collaborated with high-end brands in fashion, luxury and lifestyle. Very quickly, Orlandi gained a reputation for selecting works by young and unsung artists and designers, as well as for working with (then) rising stars like Tom Dixon, Marcel Wanders and Studio Job.

The gallery was opened in a former tie Factory in the Magenta neighbourhood. The space was officially opened as Spazio Rossana Orlandi with a photography exhibition organized by Orlandi’s daughter. Over the years, the gallery has been forecasting new and upcoming designers and establishing the premise as one of the most revered platforms for avant-garde design and lifestyle. Rossana Orlandi started her activity focusing on the rising Dutch design wave, with designers such Piet Hein Eek, Maarten Baas and Nacho Carbonell. Along the times, the research has moved widely around the world, creating a catalogue which reflects the most innovative scenes, from Europe to Asia and America.

The space is articulated in a non-traditional way, mixing together a showroom, a retail store, offices and a courtyard for events and meetings. Galleria Rossana Orlandi (as it is also known) has also revolutionized the way to present design art pieces, showing them always in real ambiances, displayed together with different kinds of products to recreate real house situations, taking advantage of the structure of the gallery itself (composed by different rooms on different floors, all winding around a blooming courtyard). The space itself also became a perfect location for corporate and cultural events with different possibilities in terms of ambiences, installations and content.

As you pass the courtyard in Spazio Rossana Orlandi, it’s nearly impossible to know what you’ll find around each corner. Much of the original aura of the building is intact. The interiors seem to blend together, filled with an unexpected mix of objects, vintage and new. According to Orlandi, the distinctiveness of the gallery is that its commercial aspect really just functions to keep the place alive, and comes in a distant second to its higher purpose: design education. “People these days definitely understand more about design, but not enough”, says Orlandi. “It’s difficult to explain the value of a piece – that it’s something that’s been studied, and that there is a lot of work behind it”.
