Host of the XX Olympic Winter Games in February 2006, Torino took to the world stage with great gusto. A city that has in past decades been synonymous with industry and in particular with their most famed resident, Fiat, Torino has since adopted an aggressive transformation strategy aimed at renovating the city.  Design has always been a cornerstone of Italian industry and Torino is a shining example of what can be accomplished harnessing its full power.
