UNStudio is an international architectural design network specializing in architecture, interior and product design, urban development and infrastructural projects.

Recently, they unveiled designs for a new transportation hub using Hyperloop technology. In partnership with technology firm Hardt, they designed a modular station that will become the center of a new European hyperloop system.

A Hyperloop is a system of tubes through which a pod may travel free of air resistance or friction conveying passengers at high speed, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to flying. The proposed hub is a prototype station for a line that would connect Amsterdam and Frankfurt in 51 minutes only. Normally, it takes around 4 hours to travel between these two cities.

Right now the hub is just a prototype, but as technology continues to evolve, we can have a hyperloop system in the near future and construction may take place sooner or later.
