INTERIEUR ARCHITECTUUR / 2012Gare do Oriente1OntwerpSANTIAGO CALATRAVAGegevenslocatie Lissabonfunctie bus-, subway- and train station, car park, commercial spacegebouwd 1998InformatieAs foreseen before the tender, the station created a physical barrier between thecity and the river. This was a barrier we did not want as we wanted to strengthenthis connection and, at the same time, use the present dynamism as a catalyst forthe creation of a new and higher quality of life in Lisbon.The project is a challenge at various levels - in terms of town planningand architecturally - as it includes two new avenues created in orderto connect the station to the city and also, an adjacent square whichintends to accentuate and make the most of the longitudinal axis of thebuilding. This multi-modal platform centralizes transport structures forthe different transport systems which will service the whole interventionzone and much more. There are five main nuclei, each corresponding tothe various systems, specifically the train station (with it’s public areas)the metro station the underground car park and the underground gallery.1819
