Founded in 1979 in Milan by Nina Yashar, Nilufar is the legendary gallery known for its ability to anticipate design trends and its exceptional selection of vintage design masterpieces.

Guided by the unparalleled vision of founder Nina Yashar, Nilufar has established itself as a point of reference for collectors, institutions and design enthusiasts by delving into the past work of the creative maestros of yesteryear while keeping an eye on the future by way of today’s contemporary talents. “Discovering, crossing, creating” is the motto that Nilufar continues to follow.

Inaugurated in 2015 within a reconverted industrial building, Nilufar Depot is a monumental stage where design from all eras and aesthetics coexists in theatrical, immersive exhibitions.

Envisioned by founder Nina Yashar with architect Massimiliano Locatelli, the 1,500-square-meter space functions as a laboratory of creativity, where objects are reimagined and narratives continually unfold. Over the years, landmark shows—from the tribute to Lina Bo Bardi and Giancarlo Palanti to FAR, dedicated to emerging voices, and the dreamlike Poikilos—have defined its ever-evolving identity. More than a destination, Nilufar Depot is a living vision in constant transformation.
