The article discusses the design and construction of the Campanhã Intermodal Terminal in Porto, Portugal. The terminal, designed by architect Nuno Brandão Costa, is a 200,000-square-foot bus station that connects different areas of the city and reconfigures roadways to create new public green spaces. The terminal is built into a hillside and features an elevated walkway, an underground bus-access area, and a restored 19th-century farm building. The design emphasizes the collision of infrastructure and neighborhood, highlighting the realities of modernity and the need for cost-effective public buildings. The terminal also includes a large park and uses materials such as concrete and granite. The article compares Brandão Costa's design approach to that of Álvaro Siza, another architect from the University of Porto, who also seeks to reconfigure the built world while acknowledging societal realities. The terminal offers visitors a vantage point to observe the complex landscape and encourages them to reflect on their place within it. [Extracted from the article]
