Electroliquid Aggregation + Finished Model

Electroliquid aggregation: 

Spatial division trough the use of positive and negative geometry.

Textures

Light

I used this texture because it provides a contrast to the form of the structure. The playful shapes stick out when placed on a cubic surface. Some colour was added for extra effect.

Medium

This texture was also used as a contrasting element. The steep angles moves with the geometric shapes, while the orange colour blends with the surrounding concrete. The way it is mounted makes it reminiscent of a metro map, which adds to the theme of public transportation.

Dark

This wood-like texture is used to break up the structure of the rail stop. It is contrasting in material and harmonising in colour. This makes the area appear warm and welcoming rather than cold and austere, which would have been the effect from a purely concrete based structure. 

Sustainability

The light rail stop follows the theme of sustainability. The concrete structure will last for decades, and it is made from local materials, thereby reducing its carbon footprint. The timber seating areas can easily be replaced following wear and tear, or re-purposed if needed. A large solar panel on top of the cantilevered roof provides energy for the information displays, and at night powers the lights. Day-to-day, this stop is carbon neutral. 

The Model

By using a series of retaining walls that gradually increases in size, the main dividing wall appears less protruding without losing its monumental effect. 

 Strategic application of wood creates an obvious separation between circulation and seating. The shapes of the elements reinforces a clear sense of direction. The stop is offset from the main walkway and slightly elevated, thereby preventing crossing circulation from going through the waiting area.

 

The stop is laid out on an axis, with several implied spaces. The shape of the seating groups and the dividing walls create an illusion of division and privacy.
