My Latest Project - Maglev Station

ccecill · March 11th, 2010, 05:30 AM

A parallelogram-shaped Transit Hub. The lowest floors would act as a subway station, the ground level, a concourse-like area, and the Maglev passengers would be given two separate boarding stations, both connected by a large, yellow breezeway. The Train would board on the seventh level (I think) of the building, making the tracks pretty high up. The building's look is intended to emphasize speed.. as if it's moving northward. I also wanted it spacious and closed with glass in most areas, because the occupant begins to feel the building become one with whatever is around them, making it's size a little less foreboding. Putting live trees in the atrium helps. The various floors would house residential and/or commercial spaces... This is not an architecturally accurate building, as there's no thickness to floors or walls, so it's purely conceptual. Inspiration: U.S. High Speed Rail Plan.. Obama on the tube..

Its good, has a lot of potential but I think you need to add details i.e facade details, floor depths etc, at the moment its all a bit transparent. I like the sculptural forms though.

the design is nice. as pingyao said it has a lot of potential but adding details is important when making a project. the main thing is not there, it does have a lot of additional components like trees people etc but the floors and facade are not detailed. post updates soon : )
