Dawntown 2010 Competition - Seaplane Terminal
Seaplane Terminal entry in Dawntown 2010 International Competition. Located on Watson Island of Miami.The terminal entry sequence is conceived as
an inversion of flight, with the arrival and parking sequence pushed below the
surface, ascending the escalator, the structure like ripples of water, light
streaming through, hovers over the travelers.
Full height curved glass is used as the
major element to separate functions, blurring the separation between areas of the
terminal, adding an ambiguity between the public/private; losing its angular
structure as is falls from roof structure.
Located along the major axis, the
travertine clad two story service core divides the arrival and departure
portions of the terminal. Rising out of this core, the control tower springs
free of the roof structure.
As if washed up on shore, the inflected
form of the terminal is surrounded by grass outcrops, like driftwood. Inside,
spaces are stitched together with daylight. Stained glass sky lights, recall
the shafts of light from below water surface, casting the terminal in pools of
color. Swatches of grass are scattered across roof; a relocated landscape,
overlapping formations, natural and man-made. The tarmac surface is drivable
grass, a migration of a scaled landscape, from roof structure to ground, a
shifting pattern, borrowed from water.
