The design represents the idea of the shelter, the independence of the shell from the building itself. The choice of a parabolic form for the roof is the result of the search for elegance and optimization of the structure. This hall is intended to serve as a climatic buffer zone, both in winter and in summer. The glazed shell incorporates semitransparent PV glasses with silicon cells.
