The choice of Ceppo di Gré for the Schiffbauplatz project reflects the inspiration of architects Jens Bohm and Vittorio Magnani Lampugnani, closely tied to Milanese architecture. For the interiors, Nuvolato di Gré, the parent stone of Ceppo di Gré, was used. The building, intended for commercial and office use, spans 6 above-ground floors and one underground. Located next to a former shipyard, it is part of a redevelopment project for an industrial district, blending historical memory with modernity.
