“The
gallery, free minimum width of 10 meters, is characterized by the presence of suspended volumes (volumi sospesi, VOS) and is dotted with pillars
supporting the roof. The environmental comfort of the large space of the
gallery is guaranteed by the use of bioclimatic devices that, in addition to
reducing energy consumption and, therefore, operating costs, limit the use of a
system of forced ventilation and air conditioning. Microclimate thus obtained
will be characterized, consistent with its nature of space for passage, by an
attenuation of feeling hot or cold compared to the outside (...). The ‘volumes’
(VOS) suspended within the large gallery, characterize the space, building with
their reach toward the central area, those suggestions that are typical of a
public space, especially when this is both a railway station, a commercial
space, and a kind of urban street, able to connect two parts of the city”
