Avignon TGV Station was designed under the direction of Jean-Marie Duthilleul of AREP, the station development arm of SNCF. Duthilleul is a French architect and engineer who was in charge of the renovation project of the French railway stations SNCF, particulrly the newer TGV stations. Jean-Marie Duthilleul has revolutionized design and function of stations by treating them as places for people to meet up and living spaces. That is to say, the transport networks are becoming real public spaces similar to the role that churches once played in public life. Indeed, Duthilleul has renovated quite a few churches in France and has taken this experience of public space into the realm of railway stations.
