The architecture
The station, understood beyond an urban node, was conceived as an artifact that converges and connects people, reduces mobility time and increases the reliability of the public transport system. Thus, this project is born out of a dialog with the context in which it is located: its immediate physical surroundings and its vocation as an urban focus. We propose a flexible facility with bus and public bicycle connections. Its central module, with natural lighting, humanizes the space: On a human scale, it allows decisions to be made about the route. The glass façade reflects the surrounding environment, creating a mix of movements, shapes and colors that enhance the experience inside. We respect the principles of universal accessibility, making use of ramps, tactile floors and other accessibility devices, eliminating physical and visual barriers, thus enabling safe and rapid embarkation and disembarkation. We understand the issue of sustainability as a fundamental condition of this project: glass fins aerate the top of the structure, provide environmental comfort and reference the rich heritage of Amazonian architecture.
Architecture that stimulates people.
