This project reimagines the underused underground level of the railway station as a cultural threshold within the city — transforming spaces of transit into places of memory. Grounded in theories of spatial production and threshold space, the design activates the vertical void beneath the tracks, turning circulation infrastructure into cultural interfaces. As a major urban gateway, the station becomes a point of reentry into the city’s identity — inviting both commuters and visitors to reengage with the layered history of mobility, place, and shared memory.
