What are the Urban Roles of Underground Stations?

Waterloo Station, London

Lyon Satolas Airport Railway Station

Kyoto Railway Station

A Square A landmark An Icon A Symbol

London Underground

Comparing to railway stations

which have acquired urban

roles had a major impact on the

new City’s Form, Underground

Stations tend to be

disconnected of the City and

practically form another urban

layer.

Usually the only architectural

element which connects the

two layers is a circulation

structure which will be shown

later on.

A+B: A horizontal – vertical world

requires a mediator – vertical to

mediate two horizontal layers or the

opposite, that mediating is done

normally in just order to move from

one layer to the other, and a strong

physical connect doesn’t guaranty a

perceptual one.

C: Adding another functional layer

such a hotel or a promenade increases

the perceptual connection since using

the same space not as a mare passage

reconnects it to the city’s activities.

D: When one layer becomes the other

the perceptual connection gets

stronger (movement, eye site).

When Looking at the entire

Network of Underground

Stations, They normally form,

like with one single station, a

detached layer of the Urban

Circulation System, suggest

another way of moving around

the city and perceiving it. Thus,

Metro maps may form an

additional perceptual map of

the city.

An Abstract representation of a city

an its intercourse with its transport

system: first a city and its focal

points, then showing the fabric

transformation due to the perceptual

changing distances between each two

points.

a City, its streets and focal points

a City, its streets, focal points and transport system

Shrinking perceptual distances – old focal points, new ones.

Fabric transformation- stretching the lines between the new points.

Focal Points cause a fabric

deformation. They seem to get

closer after that deformation

(inspiration – add of TGV), and gain

an additional meaning through the

process of traveling: the way

becomes irrelevant, focal points get

stronger.
