This is an awesome conversion by Studio Metrico, based in Milan, Italy. The task from Comvert was simple: find and design a space that could house their flagship storefront, design studio, office, warehouse and of course… skate bowl.

Did I forget to mention the Bastard Bowl is suspended? Six meters above the warehouse no less! The entire space is approximately 1,400 square meters ( or 15,000 sq ft.) and just oozes coolness. Be sure to check out the entire article here. There’s some great photos and more detail on the space and the build process.
