With the introduction of new public transport schemes and vehicles, transportation is becoming faster and more efficient all the time. For every architect in London, this poses a number of questions. How will this affect architectural design? As movement changes the infrastructure and design of cities, it’s important that people are aware of how the architectural industry will change in response to the ways people travel and work.
Public transport plays an important role in mass movement, such as people commuting to work. Many people are unable to afford their own vehicle or wish to reduce their carbon footprint, meaning that well designed public transportation buildings are vital. Stations and terminals need to be designed so crowds can flow through them easily, reducing the stress of the daily commute and enabling easy, efficient movement.
As well as the commute itself, people need commercial properties which provide pleasant, liveable and efficient surroundings for them to work in. Context and sustainability is key for creating successful urban architecture. With so much development in technology, it is easy to forget about the natural world, but space, air and nature are still vital for our wellbeing. By incorporating nature and the outside world into modern urban architecture, architects can create a sense of openness and space, enabling people to feel more relaxed in their working environments and creating a sense of vibrancy and energy.
