The confrontation of difference is fundamental to democracy. Set within Toronto, this project aims to re-politicize Union Station’s over-commercialized public spaces. The Counterpublic of Union Station invites new publics to the station, accommodating diverse users and programs through an interwoven architecture of proximity, adjacency, visibility, privacy, publicity, and counter publicity.
This project was completed at the University of Waterloo as part of the M.Arch program. Committee members include Dereck Revington, Adrian Blackwell, and Anne Bordeleau.
