Milan Cathedral is an amazing example of Italian architecture. This great Gothic example took almost 6 century to complete. More than 80 architects and lead engineers invested their talent into this creation. Nowadays, it requires constant maintenance and restoration. Do you know that you can adopt one of its 135 gargoyles to contribute to the restoration fund?

I love the idea of harmonies integration of new architectural elements into the old buildings. Obviously, it might be difficult to adjust your eye, educate your taste, and admit that in the modern world we just need to make such additions and changes to accommodate our needs. I find such examples as the glass pyramid by Louvre in Paris, and these elements of modern architecture in historical Milan very provocative and exciting. They make me look at the traditional classical architecture differently finding a new old beauty in them.
