A modern icon
at the gateway to Milan

The building designed by Oscar Niemeyer for the Mondadori headquarters, located in Segrate, is one of the masterpieces of contemporary architecture in Italy. Inaugurated in 1975, it stands as the only permanent work by the Brazilian architect in the country.

The glass volume, suspended above an elegant sequence of reinforced concrete arches, is reflected in the water in front of it, creating a timeless effect of lightness and grandeur.

ARCHITECTURE THAT UNITES FORM AND FUNCTION

Niemeyer combines structural rationality with the fluidity of forms, making each arch different from the next in a visual rhythm that gives movement to the façade. The interior is conceived as an open and luminous workspace, in harmony with the surrounding landscape. The building does not impose itself, but instead engages in a dialogue with nature through essential geometries and open spaces.

A CULTURAL AND VISIONARY MANIFESTO

Giorgio Mondadori’s decision to entrust the project to Niemeyer was a clear statement of intent: to create a symbol of modernity, culture, and internationalism. Today, the Mondadori headquarters is recognized as an icon of both Italian and international architecture, capable of stirring emotion and inspiring through its harmony of beauty, function, and vision.
