Abstract

'Speed' and therefore 'movement', which emerged as one of the important problems of the age, have entered our lives as concepts imposed on urban dwellers, especially by metropolises. Places such as transfer centers and stations constitute the nodes of this movement. As we have witnessed the pandemic era, mobility became a critical topic. We had to think about numerous measures that support rebuilding with green, sustainable approaches to be healthier. From traffic-free zones to pedestrian areas to implementing cycling and walking schemes have became the major concerned issues to allow people to move around urban spaces more safely and sustainably. The study aims to discuss the applications of a UNStudio approach for designing infrastructural projects in Netherlands (Arnhem Central Station, Hardt Hyperloop) and Izmir Metropolitan Municipality's approach for Evka-3 Social Center and Transfer Station Architectural Project Competition and Transportation Master Plan for the city of İzmir.
