Villa Necchi Campiglio FAQs
Villa Necchi Campiglio was designed and built in 1935 for sisters Nedda and Gigina Necchi, and Gigina's husband Angelo Campiglio.
Owners of a cast-iron manufacturing company, the Necchi Campiglio family gained most of their wealth during Milan's industrial boom at the turn of the 20th century.
In 2001, the final family heir donated the villa to Fondo Ambiente Italiano, which is now open to the public.

Villa Necchi Campiglio was built in 1935 by the wealthy Necchi Campiglio family during Italy's interwar years (1915-1939) and features some of the best examples of art deco and rationalism.
The glamorous single-family home was designed with sumptuous luxuries, including a heated swimming pool – one of the first private backyard swimming pools in Italy. Even by modern standards, the marble and satin used to furnish the interior, as well as the extensive gardens on the property, are extravagant.
Although decadent, Villa Necchi Campiglio is not exempt from controversy. Originally designed by Italian rationalist architect Piero Portaluppi, the home features competing architectural ideals from contemporary designer Tomaso Buzzi, who was later commissioned to renovate the home in 1938.
Today, Villa Necchi Campiglio is open to the public and houses the collection of Guido Sforni, as well as treasures from 20th-century masters such as Picasso, Fontana, Modigliani, and Matisse.
At the request of the Necchi Campiglio family, Piero Portaluppi created the original design during its construction between 1932 and 1935. Portaluppi 's vision features some of the best art deco and Italian rational design to date.
When the family decided to renovate Villa Necchi Campiglio in 1938, they worked with Tomaso Buzzi, a contemporary designer who made significant changes to Poraluppi's original design which can be traced throughout the home.
Villa Necchi Campiglio has stolen the spotlight as a backdrop for the films I Am Love (2009) and House of Gucci (2021).
