Modern Architecture Design Ideas, TKTS Booth in New York
Welcome to Times Square, one of the world’s most popular and iconic destinations. It also the place of the new modern architecture design TKTS booth and the redevelopment of Father Duffy Square, the New and Old Winner of World of Architecture 2009.
A recognition that as one of the world’s great gathering points and a focus of urban theater, both literally and metaphorically, Times Square had nowhere for people to sit and enjoy the passing show, no arrival marker, no place for a Kodak moment.
Designed by Choi Ropiha, Perkins Eastman and PKSB Architects, the new architecture design ideas of TKTS booth is a relatively modest yet important ticketing structure in the middle of new York, at one of the busiest and noisiest (both acoustically and visually) intersections in the world.
The new building managed to recapture the public ground as a result of clever lateral thinking, making use of the roof in a most welcoming way. It creates a vibrant and welcoming little public stage in the middle of New York´s Theater District, and it does so without compromise, using backlit structural glass for the steps to achieve superb visibility in a very challenging environment of large towers with glaring light boards and often furious traffic.
The ticket booth and its steps give new life to the existing square and statue of Father Duffy, so that they become a usable and vibrant venue in the heart of the big apple.
