Villaggio managed by CX is a next-generation university campus situated in the Scalo Romana district, one of the most significant urban regeneration sites in contemporary Milan. Designed by the international architecture firm SOM – Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the complex was conceived from the outset to have a dual life: first as a residence for the athletes of the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games, and subsequently as a permanent home for the city's student community.
The campus offers 1,698 beds distributed across eight buildings – six newly built and two historic structures carefully refurbished – set within a site of approximately 60,000 m². The grounds feature squares, green areas, sports facilities and spaces for cultural activities open to the local community.
The campus is operated by Campus X (CX), an Italian group specialising in student housing, with a presence in numerous university cities across Italy.
