When SESC (Social Service of Commerce) acquired the land of the old abandoned factory in the Pompéia neighborhood of São Paulo in the 1970s, the intention was clear: to provide a space for the physical and cultural well-being of workers.

Designed by Baja Estudio, located in the heart of Guadalajara, Mexico.

However, for more than 150 years it did not have its own building.
