Milan Design Weeks
April 2018

In the four decades of its history, NABA – Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti has investigated the concept of living, which over the years has increasingly combined with exploration of the new technologies. Today all this converges in projects that face innovative challenges in order to imagine different connections with the environment.
Thinking about the relationship between interior and exterior, we have come to the current idea of living on the move. NABA presents a prototype that investigates the potential offered by self driving allowing a slow use of what was once defined as the road: the city slows down and in return offers fluidity, sustainability and the ability to use travel time in a useful and pleasant way. The system, based on power supply technologies, is reorganized according to the actions it can host and implies a cultural leap in our concept of means of transport and charging. An open reflection that leads to the re-appropriation of private time, of silence and of new and ancient rituals originally connected to the sphere of living.
