Franco di Capua has shared with us another of his amazing videos, Minimetró by Jean Nouvel. 

In 2001, the Perugia Municipality decided to hand over to AJN the architectural design for the “MiniMetro” project. The project covers a length of 3 kilometres, including a 1.5 kilometre viaduct that connects the city outskirts with the town’s historical centre. The new line, its 7 stations and 2 end stations, Pian de Massiano and Pincetto, were inaugurated in January 2008. The project is inscribed in a complicated topography of hills that characterizes the land of Perugia. More info and pictures after the break.

Location: Scarlino – Italy
Architects: Arch. Franco Biondi
Studio: Paschi Gestione Immobiliare
Realization: 2007

The project regarding the so-called solar ATM is the result of an idea developed by the designer combining a specific need of the Bank with the ethical policy implemented by the same bank in relation to environmental protection. The need of the Monte dei Paschi di Siena Bank was to develop an ATM station, completely autonomous and unattended, located very close to the tourist port of Scarlino (Grosseto).The project implied the development of a station that would also be something more than a machine wrapped in a specific housing that would guarantee its protection.
