This year, designaddvance calls for ideas that reimagine railway stations in X, Y and Z cities beyond being just Transit Hubs and more as nodes of urban activity. To reform and boost the existing spatial and visual identity of a railway station into that of an urban centre—with a mix of uses such as healthcare, commerce, education, leisure, business, entertainment and so on—reshaping the interaction of the users with the place.
To reimagine an existing railway station with innovative approaches, participants should try to TRACK their design decisions.
- Take a sustainable approach towards energy and low carbon emissions,
- Resolve first and the last mile challenges of transit,
- Achieve barrier-free integration with city fabric,
- Create a self-sustaining design by incorporating feasible revenue generation models and commercial activities,
- Knock down the boundaries from a mere 'means of transit’ approach.
