Where vehicles recharge. Where people do too.
A floating roof of solar panels makes the Hub recognizable from the road before the sign can be read. Underneath: high power DC at every bay, a screen at every charger, a café, restrooms, a prayer room and shade. The flagship on the corridors, and the format every other one takes its character from.
The canopy is the landmark.
- Roof
- Dark monocrystalline solar panels, slim edge, covering the canopy edge to edge where the site allows.
- Fascia
- Burgundy, with the reversed white wordmark at 45 to 55 percent of the fascia depth.
- Soffit
- Cream, matte, with recessed linear lights.
- Edge light
- A warm white continuous line. Never blue.
- Columns
- Cream or brushed aluminum, graphite base.
- Bays
- One charger at the head of every bay, natural limestone tones, white bay lines.
The same calm presence at noon and at midnight. At night the warm white edge line and the lit fascia carry the brand; the screens dim to a comfortable level, so the canopy, not the screens, is the brightest element.
Twenty minutes, a good coffee, and a car ready for the road.
The charging bays serve the vehicle. The interior serves the person. A café, clean restrooms, a prayer room, comfortable seating, shade in summer and light at night. A screen inside shows the state of every bay, so nobody wonders whether the car is ready, and the app tells you when it is. Every visitor should feel more relaxed leaving than arriving.
A tall graphite pillar with a calm screen.
The DC charger is the brand at arm’s length. It carries the wordmark, the burgundy strip and a large portrait screen: the session first, then advertising, sponsored content and creative media between session states. The complimentary allowance is shown as a status, Included, and the paid rate is shown before anyone plugs in. Never a countdown, never a clock. A card terminal at the pillar means no account is ever compulsory.
Highway, urban, gateway.
- Highway Hub
- A roadside destination between cities for long distance travelers: fast charging, food, restrooms and safe operation day and night.
- Urban Hub
- A landmark city location that serves residents, fleets, visitors and nearby businesses while showing the whole IVVOA experience.
- Gateway Hub
- At the edge of a city and a highway corridor: urban visibility with through traffic, and a place to show investors and partners the model at work.
A forecourt, a corridor site, a landmark corner?
A Hub needs land near a highway or a major road, room for bays and a canopy, a grid connection and the services that make a stop worth choosing. If you have one of these, we would like to hear about it.
