Italian-based fashion, art and design school Istituto Marangoni has opened its first school in the US in Miami’s design district, marking the institution’s 10th location in the world.

Located in the heart of Miami’s design district, which is home to more than 130 art galleries, showrooms, creative and architectural industries, luxury fashion stores, antique dealers, restaurants and cafés, the 21,900 square foot school aims to merge “Italian expertise with American style and creativity,” said Istituto Marangoni.
