Six neighborhoods, one illustration: This is my Milano by Carlo Stanga

Dils’ neighborhood-focused initiative comes to life through an image signed by renowned illustrator Carlo Stanga, already a key contributor to the company’s rebranding campaign.

The key visual brings together, in a single composition, the defining elements of the six neighborhoods at the heart of This Is My Milan — Porta Romana, Isola, Maggiolina, Lambrate, Monti-Magenta and Scalo Romana — weaving iconic buildings, distinctive local details and scenes from everyday life. From historic architecture to contemporary structures, from markets and cafés to the colors of streets and urban nature, each element captures the unique character and vitality of these areas.

Stanga’s palette conveys a sense of joy and movement: figures, bicycles, musical instruments, moments of conviviality and urban art blend into a collective visual narrative, offering a vibrant and instantly recognizable portrait of the city.

The result is a richly colored, dynamic illustration that goes beyond mere representation — a manifesto-like image that invites viewers to see Milan through fresh eyes, guided by the stories, people and beauty of its neighborhoods.
