Threshold Space

// INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE- CENTRAL STATION

‘Threshold Space’

Research Proposal-

‘ How could pedestrian flows be controlled through a sequencing of  Thresholds ? ‘

Rationale: The ambiguous nature of Central Station signals its requirement for revitalisation. These underground circulation routes are a disorientating labyrinth fraught with a sense of enduring anxiety.  Central Station requires a clear delineation between the multiple thresholds of the station.

// Central Station Basement Plan


// Chalmers Street Entrance

The design research demonstrates how a space of transition and the act of mediation can inform pedestrian movement. The threshold is intended to act as a public navigation device.
