Where to See Art, Design, and Dine
By: Eliza Jordan
Discover hidden-gems and lesser-known spots in Milan through the lens of interior designer Nina Magon.
The interior designer Nina Magon is known for her refined approach to luxury living, leading her Houston-based firm Nina Magon Studio with a personalized philosophy that marries contemporary architecture with layered textures and art. Her work in residential, hospitality, and commercial spaces is defined by a balance of expression and disciplined editing, blending timeless style with bold design elements—the same sensibilities she finds in Milan, where Magon returns often, drawn to the city’s inherent sense of composition. Particularly during Milan Design Week, its interplay of historic and modern design, and the quiet, intentional moments shape her experience in neighborhoods like Brera, in spaces like Fondazione Prada, and at Triennale di Milano.
In celebration the 2026 iteration of Milan Design Week, Whitewall spoke with Magon about her personal favorite places to gain inspiration, see art, dine, and more.
