Shoots
and video.
Your set 45 minutes from Milan.

An industrial open space with light from three sides and a loft with parquet, kitchen and lounge, 10 minutes from Lecco. Trucks unload right inside.

Two sets to shoot
by day and by night.

Area Saideno is a photo and video shoot location in Galbiate, 10 minutes from Lecco and 45 from Milan. Two sets, the Area Loft and the Area Industrial, in a 1950s industrial space: by day you work with the natural light coming in through the arched windows; when needed, everything can be blacked out and you can shoot at night too. Fashion, campaigns, music videos, e-commerce: each set is built around your production.
