Gas Station

Jean Prouvé
 
location Weil am Rhein
function gas station
contributed by Naomi

The station was designed to be portable so that the gas station placement could be modified. This made it quite easy to ship it off to Vitra and rebuild it. In 2003 Vitra incorporated it into their collection on the factory grounds near Basel. Jean Prouvé (8 April 1901 - 23 March 1984) was a French architect and designer. His main achievement was transferring the manufacturing technology from industry to the architecture, without losing the aesthetic qualities.

How to get there? Public transportation (ÖPNV): From Basel (Badischer Bahnhof) take bus number 55, from the train station in Weil am Rhein it is about a 15-minute walk to the museum. By car: The Vitra Design Museum can be reached from Freiburg (north) or Basel (south) via the Autobahn A5 (exit Weil am Rhein), from France/St. Louis take the boarder crossing Palmrain. From Lörrach/Riehen turn west at the marked junction "Weil am Rhein" just north of the Fondation Beyeler. A big car park free of charge exists.
