"Vulcano Buono"

There's a new volcano growing near Mt. Vesuvius! Not to worry, though... it's just an impressive new architectural construct. Located in Nola, Italy, The Vulcano Buono (aka, "good volcano") is a commercial center designed by Renzo Piano. The interior space is bigger than it looks on the outside due to the sloping grass roof -- which insulates the building. Inside you’ll find a forest, an amphitheater, shops, a hotel, a supermarket, and a movie theater. Truly fascinating stuff!
