The Triennale di Milano, that started in Monza in 1923 as the Biennale of decorative arts, from 1933 is located in Milan in the Palace of Arts, designed by Giovanni Muzio and built in between the Autumn of 1931 and the Spring of 1933. Conceived by the designer as a flexible container, it represents a multi functional organism, innovative for the period in which it has been designed.
