This project reimagines transit by introducing an innovative alternative transport paradigm that caters to long commutes and the need for outdoor respite. The design establishes a symbiotic relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces, incorporating adaptable seasonal elements to address Toronto’s winter climate.

Beyond its physical structure, the project explores socio-psychological dimensions, fostering community and well-being through intentional design. Skylights, a central oculus, and solariums connect occupants with the outdoors, encouraging mindfulness and connection with nature.

The ‘Public Activity Venue’ (PAV) concept merges architectural innovation, human well-being, and societal resurgence, presenting a transformative vision that redefines winter interactions with a focus on safety and well-being.
