New release by Lebled Soloviev Editions: The Weekender Milan, a new photographic monograph by Italian photographer and director Lorenzo Morandi. As the latest addition to the house’s curated travel collection, The Weekender, the book offers a cinematic exploration of Italy’s design capital. Drawing from his background in architecture, Morandi frames a city defined by both rapid transformation and deep-seated heritage, memorializing the fleeting impressions of a single long weekend into a permanent visual record.
In The Weekender Milan, Lorenzo Morandi captures a city of contrasts from the vantage point of a knowledgeable observer. Having navigated Milan as a frequent commuter rather than a resident, he maintains a fascinated curiosity for the hidden corners and subtle textures of the city, and how people interact with them.
“I am always interested in finding the relation between people and space,” he says. Morandi’s lens moves seamlessly between the world of fashion, visits to eateries, and the silent, geometric shadows of the urban landscape. It is a melodic journey through many possible versions of Milan, a snapshot that feels both immediate and timeless, revealing the heartbeat of Northern Italy through its evolving light.

About The Weekender Collection
The Weekender collection by Lebled Soloviev Editions is a series of visual escapes designed for those who seek to experience the world’s most captivating cities through a fresh and unhurried lens. Recognizing that a weekend away offers a unique opportunity for discovery, the collection captures the essence of short but meaningful getaways. Each volume serves as a curated narrative, where a singular photographer is invited to document their personal encounter with a city over the course of a few days.
These are not guidebooks per se, but rather visual meditations that prioritize atmosphere, rhythm, and the subtle dialogues between a place and its observer. By focusing on the evocative power of photography, The Weekender series transforms the transient impressions of travel into a permanent memory. It invites the reader to step away from the digital blur of modern transit and instead linger within the architectural nuances and cultural layers of a new destination.
