Terminal 5 is a prototype designed to be applied in trainstations, based on the Kiyevsky station but applicable in any of the world. Generating a new Domesticity network focused on society, transport, consumption and climate change.
It consists of the perfect symbiosis between a logistics center, hotel and reintegration center.
Project inspired by automatic parkingsystems, composed of a modular structure in which the wagons are placed temporarily and are organized and classified by the logistics center that is located at the base.
The logistics center, located on the tracks, offers a distribution system and a rest area. It is the main support of the operation and circulations of the terminal.In charge of collecting the wagons from the train tracks, clasificate them and thanks to some forklifts, get the modules to ascend to the shelves where they will be parked.
Tower 1 is a reintegration center for climate change conservationists, who travel around the world in the wagon facing natural disasters and extreme weather without the help of technology. On the floors are combined private cells with bathrooms, gyms and an intermediate floor with dining rooms and common spaces.
Tower 2, twin of the first one, is a hotel for the travelers and is configured in the same way, 10 floors in which to park the wagons and each floor has 100 plots. The square has an additional outdoor space to add furniture, thus promoting the relationship between the neighbors. In addition to the wagons, each floor has a series of public spaces with facilities that meet basic needs that some wagons do not have included such as a bathroom, kitchen or study room. Parts that do not require fixed installations can be distributed throughout the plant or collected forming a circumference depending on the density of parked wagons.
There are different types of housing adapted to the needs of travelers. Some have a single wagon module, others are two linked modules and up to 3 modules can be combined.
