FINAL SUBMISSION AND IMAGES

FINAL SUBMISSION

FINAL IMAGES 





This image highlights the use of tensile structures in the columns. A glassy, translucent covering over the top of the columns simultaneously removes the need for complicated louvres but still allows the structural network to cast interweaving shadows over commuters which will shift throughout the day.





The tram stop is placed at the direct end of the UNSW walkway and acts as a natural continuation of the commuters movement. The columns sit on a UNSW student's horizon, acting as a natural vector for movement. The architecture therefore prioritises the pedestrians by creating a direct promenade to the station.





The length of the new trams (75 metres) necessitates a large station, To minimise the imposition of the stop, I brought the columns low to the ground and created large areas of green space which are extended down the length of Anzac Parade. This softens the impact of a large urban project and in fact extends the public green space in Kensington.
