受到威廉·弗西斯（William Forsythe）即兴创作的“舞蹈几何”的启发。舞者将他们的身体与空间中相匹配的线条连接起来，这些线条可以被弯曲、抛掷或扭曲，我们开始思考如何组合简单的直线来产生具有运动感的空间形态。思考过程减少了些许功利性，更多地关注于发现新的动势和转换方式。

Inspired by William Forsythe’s improvisational piece ‘Dance Geometry’ where dancers connect their bodies by matching lines in space that could be bent, tossed or otherwise distorted, we began to think of the possibilities where simple straight lines are composed to produce an infinite number of movements and positions with little need for transition. This idea lessens the need to think about the end result and focus more on discovering new ways of movement and transformations’.





建筑师使用直纹曲面几何形状，起伏立面由两条连接的曲线和一系列直线组成。每个定制的铝制元件都被设计和分割成标准化的尺寸，以最有效的结构形状和材料形式最大限度地提高生产、制造和安装效率。设计团队通过这种方式化繁为简，经过经济高效的标准化组件，进行高效率的安装。整个立面在不到三周的时间内安装完成，甚至没有用到起重机或特殊设备。

Using ruled surface geometry, the undulating façade is formed by connecting two curves with a series of straight lines to form the surface of the façade. Each of the custom aluminum façade elements were designed and segmented into standardized sizes for the most efficient structural shape and material form, while maximizing production, fabrication and installation cost efficiency. This technique allowed the design team to work with complex curved forms and rationalize them into simple, cost-effective standardized components, making them easy to fabricate and efficient to install. The entire façade was installed in less than three weeks without the use of cranes or special equipment.





第三层的公共广场直接与轻轨入口、停车场和公共街道相连。这里有一个乘客下车区、过境装卸区，以及从车库到车站的天桥。这个公共广场形成了项目元素之间的物理和视觉连接，并包括几个艺术作品展示区。  

The public plaza, on the third level, connects directly to the light rail entry, parking structure and public streets. It includes a passenger drop-off area, para-transit loading areas, and a covered walkway from the garage to the station. It forms a physical and visual connection between the project elements and includes several displays of regionally inspired artwork.



设计精美的座位墙、通道、地砖、本土植物和雨水收集系统十分吸引过往行人，在等候过境的同时这里也是安静的社交场所。该广场旨在容纳社区活动，如节日、农贸市场、艺术展览和其他户外公众集会，并实现场地的最大功能化，从而为人们带来极大的便利，同时也最大程度地实现建筑可持续发展原则。

Ornately designed seat walls, pathways, paving, native planting, and storm-water catchment features help to engage transit users as they move through the space, creating quiet places for social interaction while waiting for a transit connection. The plaza is designed to accommodate community events, such as festivals, farmers’ markets, art exhibits, and other outdoor public gatherings. The design and location of major project elements maximize function, sustainability, and aesthetics while providing an efficient use of space.
