Perspective Section from one side of the site to the other showing the relationships between the spaces, the street and the platform. This section also shows the key move of stretching the urban room across the width of the site to create a connection between the different boundary conditions, aligning with the theme of connectivity. A blue steel stair and void through the centre of the building creates easy way-finding, further linking to the theme of clear connectivity.

The play area will house a model of Glasgow which can be rearranged and adapted by building users to explore how Glasgow could be better connected. Exposed finishes include stone columns, glulam timber beams, and cross laminated timber floor slabs.
