After experiencing years of neglect, which began during the Second World War and continued into the post-war period, the Vasari Battisti block, enclosed by the streets of Pier Lombardo, Giorgio Vasari, and Carlo Botta in the elegant Porta Romana district, has been restored to its original unity.
Constructed in the 1930s, this architecturally and historically significant complex originally housed the Franco Parenti Theatre and its connected Caimi Bathing Centre. The purpose was to provide Milanese residents with a space for both physical and mental relaxation. Within its walls, one could find a printing press, rooms for fencing and boxing, a library, a medical clinic, and two swimming pools designed by engineer Lorenzo Secchi in 1937, today considered monumental treasures.
In 2007, due to health and hygiene concerns, the municipally owned Caimi Bathing Centre was forced to close its doors. Lacking the necessary funds for renovation, the municipality entered into a second agreement with the Pier Lombardo Foundation. Under this new arrangement, the foundation not only manages the theatre itself but also oversees the surrounding spaces, including the Caimi Bathing Centre, tennis court, garden, and building.
Thanks to the invaluable support of the theatre, the two pools have been revised through multiple renovations. The so-called Grande Piscina (large pool) now features a wooden treadmill that transforms into an evening event stage, while the Piscina Piccola (small pool) turns into an ice-skating rink during the winter season.
After decades of neglect, the entire structure, now renamed Bagni Misteriosi, has been returned to the city. Covering a total surface area of 15,000 square metres (with 9,600 square metres dedicated to outdoor spaces), this refuge in the very heart of Milan allows people to rejuvenate their bodies and minds, fulfilling the original purpose of the space.
To enhance the refurbished complex, a unique lighting solution was essential. Drawing on its extensive experience in the sector, Disano was entrusted with illuminating the building&#8217;s expansive exterior.
Specifically, Cripto luminaires were chosen for the project. These luminaires use cutting-edge LED technology, emitting high-quality light while reducing pollution and increasing energy efficiency. The result is high-performance lighting that ensures excellent visibility along with safeguarding human eyesight and our planet&#8217;s well-being.
Aesthetically, the linear design and slim profile of the Cromo fixture, boasting the timeless Made in Italy style, harmonises seamlessly with any context, whether urban or natural.
The new Bagni Misteriosi of Milan can now reap the benefits of Disano&#8216;s lighting system, a concentrated blend of innovative, high-performance LED technology. The outcome is improved visibility, maximum safety, and an elegant touch, thanks to Cromo&#8216;s enduring Italian excellence.
