A plethora of fashion, graphics and photography studios are located next to the Armani Theatre, Super Studio Più, the Tomato Foundation and the Scala Ansaldo Laboratories who all occupy buildings previously used for industry. There are large residential sites and serviced offices such as Bergognone 53, buildings bought from the Italian Post Office and refurbished with the skilful use of colour and glass.
