Feltrinelli Porta Volta is a building complex located in Milan, Italy.
The building, which is the first to be designed by Herzog & de Meuron in Italy, was inaugurated in 2016.[1] It was developed by Italian real estate company COIMA which was chosen by Feltrinelli Group as manager for a purpose made fund.[2] The project aimed to revitalize a historically underused area along Viale Pasubio turning the side into a cultural and civic hub. The complex houses the Feltrinelli Foundation, a public library, and offices housing Microsoft Italy's headquarters.[1]
