The Milanese Cultural Association Zona Bovisa put a 4300 mq humble and crumbling building as multi-function cultural area at disposal of young professional men, designers, students of Milan Politecnico and other artists.The concept of social architecture is now developing; it is an art looking for new spaces outside museum and galleries, coming from a new relationship between design, environment and social contest.
The realisation of the project of restoration for the reorganisation of the Base B has been possible thanks to the Workshop Megagraphics, made by the Mexican artist named Raymundo Sesma, which involved more than 40 university students of graphics and design. 12 hours of interdisciplinary lessons concerning the subjects of colour, decoration, graphics for architecture and design (a Lechler Technician was the teacher in these lessons). 36 hours of practical exercise in the realisation of the work, entirely painted with Chrèon wall paints and enamels. For the external walls and the boundary wall: Framaton riveste in red, yellow, black and white. For all the metallic substrates: Sintex enamel in black, white yellow and red. For all the internal and external floors the Mantoplast HS enamel in white, black, yellow and green.
The building has been inaugurated on the 11th April 2006, and it is located in Via Lambruschini 36, in a strategic position between the Politecnico design University Faculty and the train stations Ferrovie Nord, where the new headquarters of the Milan Triennale is growing out.
