Responding to the biological, cultural, and vernacular characteristics of the community and environment as an inspirational pioneer building in an area of future development, Station 55 has the opportunity to go beyond conventional functions and set a precedence to encourage community sustainable design strategies and conscientious lifestyles.Responding to contextual references led to the formal influences and angles of the station in order to respond to the community and environment. Amplification and emphasis of sustainable elements and systems provides a palpable inspiration for the community to follow the lead of the fire station.
