Solar Taxi Provides High Performance Service in The City Using Clean Energy

Addressing for one of the main concerns of the century by using clean energy; Solar Taxi has been designed so as to provide a high-performance service in the city centers where the speed is slowed down. Objecting to increase their existing battery system by 20-25%, the nano-solar (passive) panels dominate the technology to be effective during the daytime without the need of sunlight. While its sturdy construction surrounded by a transparent outer shell ensures the strength needed for tough roads, the internal accessories intend to extend the product life.

To explain further, endurance is not only assured by the CTP outer shell, but also maintained by ABS accessories to prolong the product life. In addition, its spacious interior is capable of carrying up to 5-passenger including physically disabled beside the large load capacity. Although the main proposal is for 3-passenger, the internal design and the flexibility allow the capacity to enhance up to 5-passenger.

Project description



The Jesolo Lido Pool Villa is the first of a developement for 9 single-family residences in the beach town of Jesolo Lido, Italy. The villa is a custom designed prefabricated wood structure, and it was built and furnished in only 6 months. Energy-saving high standards have been applied to the shell to guarantee maximum comfort and almost zero costs throughout the four seasons.


The building features wood structures as a flexible and anti-seismic system which also avoids thermal bridges. The 31cm of perimeter insulation, argon-gas insulated glass facades, 10 kw of photovoltaic panels installed on the roof and the interior / exterior led light fixtures co-operate in making a technologically contemporary building. Because of the small dimensions of the plot, the design goal has been directed in leaving as much open space as possible.


The indoor living area has transparent sides which opens towards two different-sized patios. The largest one, to the west, featured a long swimming pool, which takes the entire lenth of the space, and two planted square inserts. An olive tree is the main three-dimensional element in the patio and it’s placed next to the staircase which leads to the underground level, where the storage and technical rooms are located.


The smaller patio, to the east, also features two planted inserts with another olive tree to counter balance the other side. The outdoor areas, as a client’s main request, needed to be low maintenance, so most of the surface was paved and the plants in the inserts where selected in order to live with the least care possible. The 4-meter roof overhang to west allows to have enough shading during the hot summer months and allows to place a covered outdoor seating and dining areas.


Interiors are custom designed with typical JMA solutions, like audio/video walls, custom designed solid-surface kitchen, motorized roller shades which disappear into the dropped ceiling for maximum continuity of indoor-outdoor areas, intergrated indirect lighting and home automated electrical system. The radiant floor heating system is powered with an electric heat pump which takes the energy from the photovoltaic panels. The air-conditioning system is fully integrated in the dropped ceiling with linear diffusers and hidden intakes. As always for JMA, the persuit of simplicity and linear solutions represented a large part of the design work.
