Transfer Stations in Mendoza

description

Preliminary study of the proposed Transfer Stations for various locations in the province of Mendoza in Argentina. The project is modular and expandable, with two typologies of platforms designed; a wider one for deployment in spacious areas, and a narrower one intended for locations with limited space and within the road system. To this end, the structure was designed so that the pillars are centered on the platforms, allowing for the arrangement of the program needs at these points and freeing up space for circulation around the periphery. In addition to the platforms, the program includes ticketing, a snack bar, and restrooms. The structural arrangement allows for the collection of rainwater stored in underground cisterns and reused in the toilets and for watering landscaped areas. It also allows for the existence of a large linear zenithal window that brings light to the indoor spaces and the center of the platforms. We took advantage of the planes formed by the set of pillars to create an envelope that functions as large informative totems displaying data on the lines, bus schedules, and advertising campaigns.
