Work in progress

Starting to look at the amount of space I have to play with. The easiest way i could do it is through revit and finding some general areas, I can then have a bit of knowledge about how big the floor plate can be and start to organise my plans accordingly.

This means im starting to think about some key elements of the design including; pedestrian paths, bus and other transport loading zones, river connections, head heights, seating, incorparation of cafes etc.

The biggest problem im having at the moment is resolving the fact that when a bus comes into the platform, it can only unload on the left hand side as thats where the doors are. If a bus is traveling north, towards the valley, this means it will let people off to the western side, and visa versa south-east. On one hand this is grat in the aspect that as people get off the bus, they wil be greeted with the rivere views, however it poses the problem that the main waiting areas will have to be seperated by the bus lines. This is where the problem lies, and I'm trying many different solutions.
