Train station, Greenery & Air quality

The site is located between the Kamionek Lake and urban greenery in the West and the heavy transportation infrastructure in the East. Upon research, first thing stood out was the bad air quality of Warsaw due to the coal use. We decided to make a building as a huge air purifier for the local community.
