Five ACM students reached the final: , , Sara La Rosa, Lorenzo Antonio Petrone and Lorenzo Castiello, presenting their projects in Milan at a dedicated stand during Lineapelle.

And two of them received special recognition:
🏆 Benedetta Boidi — Overall Innovation Award
🏆 Laia Bombelli — Special Mention for Accessories and Bags

An experience that brought students’ research and creativity beyond the classroom, into direct dialogue with materials, professionals and the fashion industry.

Because at ACM, learning also means putting your vision to the test.

A day at ACM.

From laboratories and classrooms to the visit at Biblioteca Fiamma Lanzara, our Rome and Milan campuses opened their doors for Open Day.

Meeting students, talking to Course Coordinators, asking questions, exploring the spaces and discovering a little of what happens here every day.

Because choosing where to study also means seeing a place, meeting the people who bring it to life and imagining yourself there, even if just for a moment.

Thank you to everyone who joined us.

See you soon. Maybe next time, in the classroom.
