Text by Omri Revesz, Interior Design Professor, Department of \u201cCulture del Progetto\u201d, IUAV University of Venice<\/span><\/p>\n The three-year thesis workshop of the Interior Design course at the IUAV University of Venice, held by Omri Revesz, has explored and developed ideas and spaces for new ways of living together. Luca Vestuti's interesting and innovative project is specifically dedicated to a new concept for the interiors of short and medium distance trains.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Beyond a means of transport<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Traditionally, we have always considered the train only as a means of transport, but if this were to include the integration of other spaces and services, how could it change the lives of millions of people? In an adequately redesigned space, that time could be converted into recognised working hours, or used to carry out those activities and errands that we normally relegate to the end of the day or to weekends.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Rethinking interiors<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The aim of the project is to rethink the current interior spaces of train carriages, putting them in close relation with the needs of those who use them, and in parallel to create a sustainable economic model for both service providers and users alike.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Furniture system with standard modules<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The project consists of redesigning the interiors of trains with short and medium distance routes, often obsolete and not in line with technological updates and current ways of life, providing multi-purpose spaces, such as supermarkets - through vending machines - and fitness and co-working areas. A furnishing system with standard size modules allows the distribution of space to be defined according to needs and to be modified in the future without costly operations and disposal of materials.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Design and research at IUAV University of Venice: equipped and connected train<\/em><\/h3>\n
