Università Metro Art Station

Egyptian-born industrial-designer Karim Rashid is the creative force behind Naples' Università metro station, a playful, candy-colored ode to the digital age. White tiles clad the station entrance, each one printed with a word orginating in the last century. In the station itself you'll find lenticular icons that change perspective and color, a sculpture reflecting the nodes and synapses of the brain, platform steps decorated with abstracted portraits of Dante and Beatrice, even platform walls adorned with glowing, "animated" artwork (stare persistently).
