A conceptual project:
To relieve the sense of stress for commuters at Spencer Street junction.
The challenge:
Spencer Street junction is between the DFO shopping outlet and one of the main entrances of Southercorss Station. Southerncross Station is one of Melbourne's busiest stations, with 1.2 million people commuting every week. The site is surrounded by many office buildings including Nab, Medibank and 9news, where office workers bypass the station quickly and have nowhere to linger or relax. The environment consists of hard concrete buildings and pavements, lacking a sense of place and community.
Commuter research:
To find common charcteristics of commuters I observed site and surveyed 5 people with a list of proposed activities at the Spencer Street junction.
Proposed activities & user preferences:
​The solution:
The people who bypass Spencer Street junction need a space to buffer their stressful daily commute routine. The project introduces various substances, activities and movements to add joy and improve the impression of the place they visit.
