A transport interchange reconceived as a public piazza: metro, bus, taxi and parking resolved across three levels beneath a socio-cultural ground plane of ateliers, a library, a conference hall and a kindergarten.

The section does the urban work – infrastructure below, public life above, and a continuous ground that belongs to pedestrians. Published on worldarchitecture.org.
