A contemporary selection

The headquarters of Big Apple Design is situated in one of the most characteristic 'piazze' of Milan, within the 5 Vie neighbourhood, a hub for high-end design and antiques. Architect Melissa Tambelli, who has always been passionate about interior design and decorative arts, created this multi-purpose space in 2014. In addition to curating home decor items made with traditional techniques, her selection features objects meticulously handmade by international designers – for example the Piatto Unico vintage ceramics by Emanuela Sala, or the jewel necklace by Principe 1940 Atelier – to create a perfect contemporary 'Wunderkammer'.
