ATRIO is a major mixed-use commercial development in central Bogotá comprising two towers – North and South – with a large, open public space at ground level. The client’s brief was not only to deliver class office accommodation but also to create a new public space at the heart of the city. The project is a exciting opportunity to contribute to the resurgence of a civic society in Bogota. At 44 floors (+201.6m) and 59 floors (+268.8m) high respectively, the towers provide a total of 250,000 m2 of office space, public services and retail with up to 72,000 people ex-

and is estimated to complete in late 2019.
Together with an additional 10,000 m2 of public space, which constitutes two thirds of the whole site area, the development is an important step in the regeneration of the area known as Centro Internacional, bringing new business, tourism, public transport and culture to the city’s former business district.
A significant project deliverable is effective knowledge sharing between the international and Colombian firms, and RSHP is working closely with local architectural practice El Equipo de Mazzanti to ensure skills are transferred locally.
The project delivery is in two phases, with the first building ATRIO North Tower providing more than 50,000 m2 of flexible office space, 4,600 m2 of public services and 1,800 m2 of retail. Construction of the first phase began in December 2014 with preliminary excavations

Atrio: a new door for the Centro Internacional The location of the site, at the intersection of Avenida el Dorado and the Avenida Caracas, two main arteries of the city, creates an excellent strategic position. The aim and challenge of the project is to favour the cohesion of the Centro Internacional - Bogota’s finacial district - by channelling pedestrian flows towards the new development. The towers are arranged around the confluence point where most of the potential pedestrian flows converge. The architectural form that defines how the buildings meet the ground seeks to enhance social activity: the bases of the towers are set back and activated in order to define open spaces of monumental character, a new Atrio for the city.

The Estadio Nacional de Futbol in Caracas - designed in collaboration with engineering firms Arup and schlaich bergermann und partner - is set in parkland on a hillside overlooking the Venezuelan capital. RSHP’s first football stadium is the result of an initial approach by the city Mayor to look at the design of a new bus station and masterplan for the area known as La Rinconada 8.5km south-west of the capital. This masterplan includes a transport interchange (also by RSHP) and establishes a new metropolitan park protecting the surrounding hillsides from further
development. Within the park, existing sports facilities, including the listed Arthur Froehlich-designed racecourse, will now be augmented by a new baseball stadium, a geodesic dome for events and the 52,000 capacity national football stadium, providing a new focus for leisure activities in the city and an additional eight hectares of public space. The football stadium, which features terraces cut into the hillside that give way to a series of floating esplanades providing access to the various levels, is a lightweight addition to the surrounding
topography with deliberate gaps left in the structure to provide spectacular views of the city to the northeast. A brightly-coloured bicycle wheel canopy roof hovers over the complex, which will be FIFA certifi ed and play host to Caracas FC.
02 The stadium is part of a masterplan for the area known as La Rinconada providing a new focus for leisure activities in Caracas.
21
Objectives of the Masterplan for La Rinconada A key factor in the stadium design will be its integration into the current masterplan for the site. The following summarise the main masterplan objectives: 1. Allow neighborhood community to access facilities of education, culture, leisure and sport 2. Encourage the emergence of a hub of activities related to leisure and knowledge creating a new centrality 3. Protect the environment and commit to sustainable development 4. Promote a new paradigm of mobility based on public transport, pedestrian and bicycle access 5. Contribute to the regeneration of public space in Caracas and create a new square 6. Propose the best transport interchange in AmĂŠrica and a new Occidente terminal 7. Create a large metropolitan park 8. Generate a sports city 9. Organize the new campus of the UBV 10. Protect and enhance existing leisure activities 11. Promote an open and participatory design process

Through an ondulating bowl and concourse slab, and a landscaped access, the building manages to relate perfectly with the natural landscape. It has been conceived as two separate contrasting elements: the bowl and the roof. The precast concrete
bowl responds to the best rates of visual and sound confort, and the roof, on the other side, acts as a superlight, beautifully engineered ‘bicycle wheel canopy’ suspended over the landscape.
23
24
The roof is the element that defines the image of the project.
25
Venezuela has a rich history and tradition of construction from the Indigenous to the modern structures of today’s city centres. This history of construction is drawn in the design and construction of the stadium to create a clear Venezuelan identity that will be recognisable to the nation.

Melbourne will have five new landmarks and meeting places when the Metro Tunnel’s underground stations open in 2025. The station designs combine functionality, space and natural light, to ensure passengers can move through the stations and transfer between rail lines as easily and intuitively as possible. Each station – North Melbourne, Parkville, State Library, Town Hall and Anzac – draws on the local character of its location, featuring materials such as brick, glass, wood and bluestone, with new parks, open space and bicycle facilities at surface level.
As well as being gateways to a modern metro train system, the stations and their surrounds will feature shopping, cafes, restaurants and art installations, thereby becoming destinations in their own right. The new North Melbourne Station will initially feature one entrance at the Laurens Street end of the structure, with provision made for further entrances as the area’s population grows. The new North Melbourne Station is located in Arden which is to become a new destination and community of Melbourne – a place to work, live and visit.
The construction of the new station will trigger significant urban renewal, creating a vibrant residential, commercial and retail precinct on the edge of the CBD. The station entrance with its bold, red brick arch reflects the area’s industrial heritage and will create a distinguished landmark for the new neighbourhood.
03 The station is formed by the diagonal arches alignment, creating an internal street. The concrete panels and the bricks define the materiality of the external building and evocates the identity of the place.

North Melbourne Station, Arden - A catalyst for future Melbourne The metro portal at North Melbourne makes a civic statement on its street address and offers a visual connection to the future new neighbourhood beyond. The building references the industrial nature of its neighbours using brick as an expressed material and integrated with the structural proposals. Its geometry plays on the contrast in alignment of the existing city grid and the metro line beneath to suggest a future arrangement of buildings where the Metro is a focal element.
38
The proposal are based on a simple brick on concrete building expressed with a large skewed arch carved through the building creating an internal public street. The station has three above ground architectural parts: the station entry and exit portal, the concourse skylights and the western services building. Building Enclosure: The station entry and exit building is a robust concrete framed building with an expressed skewed arch running through it. The arch contains the station entry and exit portal. The composite brick/ concrete vaults and external walls are to be developed using modern prefabrication techniques. A system
of pre-fabricated structural shells - identically shaped arch elements which are regular and modular, and set a side each other in a staggered orientation following the station alignment below. The building is supported by a steel frame and has precast concrete faรงade panels with brick embedded as the external finish. It is hoped that with further design development these panels will become self-supporting precast elements. The faรงade system runs on a 3m grid incorporating openings which are regularised and ordered about a 5m datum from AHD on the north faรงade to accommodate retail
ARDEN STATION, MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA / Architectural Design Portfolio / 2019
entrances, signage and louvres are accommodated. To the south elevation incorporates openings for access to more technical areas which are generally ordered around a datum of 3m above grade. Retail bay windows are placed within the brick faรงade/East elevation on Laurens Street to activate the frontage adjacent to the arch entry. The ground level of the building is raised 1m above the surrounding ground level to assist in flood protection. The thoroughfare through the ach is level; stairs and ramps make the transition of the walking surface back down to grade at the entrance off Laurens Street and to the rear.
The flat roof is supported by a steel structure with a metal deck with grating as required for access to PV cells and ventilation shafts. The aspiration is to create a roof scape which is represented as a fifth elevation for future development of the precinct. Incorporating photovoltaic panels to maximise sustainability. Below the solar panels is gravel. Three roof light enclosures appear at ground level in line with the concourse level below. The profile of the roof lights has been studied with respect to achieving maximum daylight levels falling to concourse. A series of profiles were tested and the optimum selected.
The western building is MEP plant area and emergency egress, containing double height plant room space, 10.5m above ground. This area is not accessed by the public. It is treated as an ancillary building taking brick as reference to local context. Due to its scale there is some relationship with the station entry building which is the key point of reference for context. A precast concrete faรงade system with brick embedded is employed here with openings integrated within the west faรงade for loading bays and maintenance access/escape from the station below. The faรงade is modulated on a 3m panel system and the roof is a steel deck with ventilated areas.
39
2019 / Architectural Design Portfolio / ARDEN STATION, MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA
The strong identity of the station is expressed through the arch and its materiality. A pubic route passing through the arches is open at both ends and traversable 24 hours. This wide covered space is envisaged as a continuous piece of public realm that links the raised ground level with the station entrance and future new development beyond.

The lower concourse level is defined by three skylights positioned over a large central void area which accommodates stairs, escalators and lifts.As an important part of the circulation sequence, bringing daylight into interior spaces helps with way finding. 41
The upper Concourse is composed of 15 staggered, selfsupporting, parallel arches which are 3m wide and stand 11m tall spanning a 20m width. Each arch is formed of connected, precast concrete shells integrating brick as the inner surface finish. A systematic approach for openings with each arch is drawn. Access doors or windows are detailed as entrances that puncture the arches with deep reveal frame openings, set out to the same height and width so as not to fragment the continuity of the brick surface.

Catalinas Rio occupies a significant portion of Buenos Aires’ new Catalinas Norte II master plan, a major public endeavour to transform underutilized railyards along the Rio de la Plata to extend the city’s business district. The development will bring the city closer to the waterfront and establish a new destination. The creation of a new public space, located at the centre of the site and sitting between the feet of the two towers, in an area devoid of attractive public realm, will act as a magnet to those working in the surrounding tower blocks and create
a desirable route between the stations and the Puerto Madero. The two towers, that rise 23 floors, are connected in the lower levels by large, multi-story, floorplates. Together, the towers and bridge floors form an urban window and establish the active heart of the office experience. Large, landscaped decks, complemented by recessed balconies in the tower floors, are strategically designed to provide outdoor space and sweeping views of both the waterfront and cityscape. The positioning of the cores off-centre, along the façade to the Avenida Eduardo
Madero, allowed for large uninterrupted 2,000 sqm office floorplates. Flexible office space is a hallmark of all the commercial projects and office buildings should to be able to adapt to the everchanging needs of the workspace. The large footplates combined with limited depth of the site results in significant frontages facing the water’s edge. The design, therefore, aims to address some very specific formal challenges that are consequences of scale of the new office spaces and investigates how to mitigate the impact of large expanses of façade glazing fronting on to the River Plate.
04 A mixed-use tower scheme located on the waterfront of Buenos Aires that will contribute positively to the construction of an attractive and identifiable place in the city.

The Cityscape From the urban point of view, the buildings prime responsibility is to the waterfront, the river Plate, the grandeur of the City of Buenos Aires – unlike buildings that sit embedded in the urban grid, these new office buildings will sit at the edge of the City and will therefore be seen, first and foremost, in elevation, from across the river.
The sculpted architecture speaks to all the different scales, from the skyline to the sidewalk – it rises to on the waterfront but also meets the ground in a delicate and humane manner. Extending the fractal approach taken for the building facades, the play of folds (creases) and inserts (projections) has been extended to rescale and mould the base of the buildings
These folds, creases, indents and projections around the base of the tower allows to create an environment that is comfortable and inviting. Similarly, the manipulation of volume, projection and colour where the building meets the sky enables to gently tapper the top floors and soften the cornice line. Thus the building merges into the sky.

One of the biggest design challenges, was to find a way to diminish the visual impact of a building with such large floorplates. The resultant composition has a kinetic quality that draws on the artistic heritage of South American abstract art. The articulation of building volumes Very gentle folds into the faรงade line have been introduced, effectively breaking the faรงade into facets. These facets will catch the light differently, thus the shape and dimensions of
the building will change endlessly according to the view point, time of day, light conditions etc. Overlapping projections Into the creases that result from these folds, the outer edge of the floor slabs is extended outwards i.e. in the opposite direction to the fold. These inserts create shadows of varying depth that will play across the facades. Application of colour Colour on the underside of these inserts amplifies the interplay between the creases and the inserts, recesses and projections.
The resultant effect is akin to an optical illusion in which the outline of the building is constantly shifting and the perception of volume ever changing. The adjoining images attempt to capture some of the dynamic qualities of our design. The buildings are designed to speak to all these scales, the tremendous sweep of the Platte, the grandeur of the City of Buenos Aires, the necessities of the working communities and the needs of the person who is simply walking down the pavement in front of the building.

144m The tower structure is a simple arrangement of posttensioned (PT) band beams supporting slabs supported by circular concrete columns on an efficient 10.5m x 10.5m structural grid with up to 6m cantilevers along the faรงade. The use of PT allows the internal spans to be greater and have a large cantilever at the faรงade while maintaining a materially efficient solution.
