The Naples Underground Central Station redefines a rigid business district by creating organic, flowing public spaces with complex topography. It links the city’s volcanic landscape and modern infrastructure, replacing an underused plaza with a vibrant transit hub.

The design uses laminated timber vaults that contrast with surrounding concrete and evoke a walk through nature, blending infrastructure, art, and history to reconnect the area with the city and its past.
