Forrestfield Airport Link
Perth Australia
2015
This new spur line links Perth CBD to the western suburbs via Perth Airport. The 3 stations of various typology maintain consistency in architectural design language and approach.
Underground Consolidated Airport Station has elevated and subway entry linkways to the surrounding expanding airport terminals. A lofty atrium within which multi-level circulation, daylight and natural ventilation serve users down to the lowest platform level; providing opportunities for vertical spatial expression animated with daylight and movement.
The expressive faceted roof form of semi-underground Airport West Station shelters a 3-level circulation void with faceted walls, where natural light and ventilation are exploited down to the underground platform.
