MOBILITY TIME CONNECTIVITY

 

INTENTIONS

 

bring life/bring people

 

Our main idea is to make the surroundings of Sant Joan station a more lively place, with activities and services for the people working in the area. But to bring life, we have to bring people. This is the reason why in our project we want to create a a specific residential area.

 

make connections

 

We figured out that this area is fill of "islands" (building and empty spaces) that are not connected. Each "island" is totaly isolated, introverted. Our intention is also create a connection point.

hybrid building

 

Our proposal is a mix/used residential complex that is directly connected to the transportation (train, bus, bike stations). The idea is to reduce the time usually wasted on moving from one place to the other. The main idea is to condense the different uses, that are dispersed in the city of Sant Cugat.
