“Eutòpia” is a semi-permanent installation made up of 48 assembled naval containers destined for disposal, which become the fulcrum of the project, finding a new vocation. Arranged so as to integrate an “amphitheater” into the existing architecture, they create a multifunctional space, the size of Piazza Plebiscito in Naples.

The Container Arena can be used internally but also externally: if the central part is intended for shows and events, the over 1,700m2 that make up its “shell” are a dynamic museum of Urban Art where international and local artists, direct from Foll.ia and guided by a common thread, they will exhibit their works over time, superimposing them to experiment with new forms of “suspended” art.

The “Eutòpia” Arena is the heart of Vulcano Buono, a multifunctional complex located in the municipality of Nola, designed by Arch. Renzo Piano.

The structure comes to life from a set of circular solids, which merge to form a truncated cone structure with an ovoid plan, open in the center, which follows the appearance of Vesuvius, in the center of which there is a large circular square, reminiscent of the Neapolitan square del Plebiscito and is used for concerts and events.
From the outside, the complex is practically invisible as an architectural work because the roofs are covered with soil where there is a lawn and low vegetation that harmonize with the surrounding landscape.
