REGULARDAY

On an average day, the morning peak (07:30-

09:30) and the afternoon peak (17:30-19:30)

accounts for most of the train line activities.

The packed cabins and platforms presents a

dierent sense of public space. People try to

be at ease in this spontaneous and intimate

distances, escape into various anti-social

behaviour, such as napping, texting and

listening to music.

we were warned at the very beginning, a project in this scale requires a dierent kind of

thinking...decisions of demolitions should be done if necessary, but wisely.

BEING BRUTAL MIGHT BE THE WAY OUT

12/76

URBAN DISCONNECTION:

Old Stuttgart Main Station

URBAN CONNECTOR:

New Stuttgart Main Station

The old station track cuts o the connection o the city centre, sacricing

pedestrian fow between the two sides. The main road in ront o the stationlies on a wiped-out plaza, rendering the station an island.

The new proposal creates a public space in place o the original track to re-integrate the urban abric.

It also acilitates connection across the road, bringing the station and the Kings Street pedestrianzone together. The new design ser ves as the meeting point between the old city and the new

development.


13/76

The precious underground mineral water is taken into consideration during the design of the rail line, in order to preserve such

important natural feature and minimize the destruction of the construction to the nature.

Serving the Virtual Communities

The current Redfern Station serves mainly for the students of the Sydney University, which had 47,775 students in

2009 and the Australian Technology Park with Channel 7 oce housing up to 2000 employees. Causing a huge

demand of transport during the peak hours. there is also an inux of new residents and workers set to result from

the Redfern- Waterloo urban renewal project.

Why a New Station?

The Current Redern Station is a trac

knot, caused by the confagration o

pedestrian, vehicular, cyclist and

commuter tracs.The troublesome situation is compelling

or a major change, with the considerati

o the uture expansion o both Sydney

University and Australian Technology Pa

in 2030.

Proposing New StationUntying the knot


30/76

Infrastructure should be a projection of the future, hence the expansion of both

Sydney Uni and ATP will be the major concern for the relocation of station.


31/76

The expansion of University of Sydney into the North Eveleigh site, the new master plan will

include education building, residential abundant greens pace and retail facilities; the ATP site is

also great potential for future development, which will induce a large demand of transportation,

exceeding the current situation.

The Station that Connects and Entertain, before and after the train operates


42/76

The project consists o two bridge buildings linked by an openpedestrian bridge; each bridge contains its own program. The

frst bridge contains the train station and an accessible roo,

with gallery space and a nightclub, access via a ramp that is

open 24 hours beore and ater the train operates.The choice o program is a protest against the current time-

table system o train operation, and the mixing o activities

that have previously been perceived as incompatible. The

second bridge is the University Learning hub, containing small

collections o books and digital media, reading room, class-

rooms and lecture theatre, allowing both individual and

collective uses.
