A game of strategy, staged like architecture. Milano transforms chess into a sculptural cityscape—stepped terraces descend into a dramatic valley while minimalist pieces echo arches, domes, and fortress towers. It's equal parts design object and playable set, inviting you to think in levels and put bold moves on display. Why you'll love it Architectural drama: Cascading steps frame every match like an installation—perfect for a coffee table or studio shelf. Iconic forms: Rooks rise as castellated towers; bishops and knights are carved into clean, modern silhouettes. Warm accents: Subtle, round wooden discs punctuate the board with a tactile, natural contrast. Monochrome elegance: A calm ivory vs. deep charcoal palette keeps the focus on your strategy. Made for play & display: Flat landing pads on each level keep pieces steady; the corner-hugging footprint saves space and draws the eye.
