TRIACA Concept 230
The reduction of CO2 emissions is mainly due to streamlined shapes, aerodynamically shaped capsules of residential buildings, built with the use of ultra-light forms.

In the interior, all upholstery (including bed linen and towels) is made of recycled materials. Scientific institutes and architectural departments of the regions of Tuscany and Florence were involved in the several years of work on the motorhome of the future. When a vehicle is stationary, it uses the sun's rays to power its receivers. The photovoltaic system is mounted on the roof, which increases the volume of the interior thanks to electric actuators lifting it up.
