The Schiphol Interchange Station is part of a masterplan developed for the Haarlemmerliede area near Haarlem, the Netherlands. The masterplan is based on the ‘Randstad 2040’ vision from the government that foresees an expansion of Haarlem towards the east. Transit oriented development has been chosen as the main driver for the masterplan. By connecting Schiphol airport by train to the future Schiphol airport at sea, new transport possibilities arise in which the Haarlemmerliede area will act as a transport/transfer hub in the transport network of the Randstad and the Netherlands as a whole. The masterplan is filled with office and commercial related developments. The SIC (Schiphol Interchange Station) facilitates the entrance from the highway into the masterplan and the connection of the two sides of the masterplan. The SIC is an interchange station from the train to the car and vice versa. The architectural layout and design of the building is based on the flows of transport on the site and in the building. It is directly derived from the best integration of the different flows of transport such as cars, trains and people. The functions are placed along these flows to create interesting, open spaces. The building and building skin are parametrically designed and developed based on the traffic flows and a following Building Technology research.
