A Sustainable Design
- Architecture mimics natural elements and cultural values -
- Monolithic architecture becomes refined in the detail -
Manifested from natural and cultural elements, dark, bamboo-like poles guide pedestrians to and from the light rail stop, effectively highlighting the main entryway through stark tonal contrasts in texture and colour. They further act in harnessing natural light to passively brighten the underground walkway.
The monolithic-concrete structure provides effective shade in the Australia climate, keeping a cool and shaded area with its sleek, open style, subsequently allowing the building to perform on an environmentally sustainable level.
Industrial timber is utilised in both a refined, detailed, and natural sense to absorb the urban pollution, whilst large planes of grass act in catching runoff water which can then be recycled for use in nearby facilities. Both allow onlookers to feel a human attachment to a rather industrial and urban context, granting a space of physical and psychological relaxation when waiting for the light rail.
