Assignment 2





CONVERGING HUBS: AN INTERMODAL BUS STOP FOR NEW YORK CITY
This project highligted the concepts of creating a uniform surface bus stop that fulfilled understanding of various digital programs as well as being applied to a real-life situation. The purpose for my bus stop is to fulfill an intermodal connection between various transportation networks in New York City. My design incorporates a ribbon designed surface created through lofts that provides an interior shelter for passengers as well as an exterior station for bicycles. Surfaced areas are set for strucutral support and areas of storage for advertisements, bus information, and the surfaces for bike storage. The paneled areas on the roof and seating offer both a penetrative surface for sunlight to enter the passengers inside while also providing a sleek aesthetic design.
