TRINITY: The Southern Research Station or Cross South is a series of architectural projects that present a new generation of architecture of the postindustrial world. The spatial ensemble is composed of in-land buildings. Functional scenario of the project activates science, arts and nautical tourism over Palmer Archipelago as a centre of Global South geography. Growing beyond the term urban, the project stimulates ecology control, slow mobility and ethical tourism. The grounded science depot of The Southern Station is designed as a digital library, science archive and an open public concourse. The conceptual centre of the building lies in a unique constructive scheme, which, in addition to strength qualities, programmatically and spaciously constitute the building. Four horizontal chains of inverted concrete arches form the building body, space in-between designed as adjacent chambers with open and closed functions. Each constructive arched module is operating individually depending on the time-task of the building. However, the basic physical parameters of such modules are constant. Open areas are presented as a public inter-arcades, squares, reading and conference halls or walkways. The central composition is completed by an inner public light-place.
