    Is this ever a cool cool week to be in Milan. The entire city becomes speckled with galleries all exhibiting the latest in design. The heart of it is the Furniture expo at the fair grounds, but the galleries are more intriguing and are a great reason to really explore the city. To get around, you'll need to rely on taxis, public trans and your feet. It's very cool and you will get to see some fascinating stuff!

    When I was there, i don't think there was any cost to enter the galleries, though to get into ZONA TORTONA you will need a business card, I think. Admission to the fair was pretty cheap, but check the website for details.

    Design Week is in April.
