ABSTRACT
The Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center (ARTIC) is a new 67,000 square foot terminal providing connections for ten different modes of transportation as well as support programs including commercial tenant and dining space, ticketing, lobby and operation offices. The design of ARTIC involved numerous experts and firms, but the discussion focuses on the partnership between HOK and Buro Happold. HOK is a global design, architecture, engineering and planning firm. This firm's thought-leaders create design solutions for clients in 13 strategic practice areas, including aviation and transportation, commercial, corporate, healthcare, and science and technology. The Los Angeles office was founded in 2006 by Greg Otto, who was educated as both an architect and engineer and believes strongly in collaborative modes of practice. He describes the Buro Happold team that worked on the ARTIC project: 'On complex projects, you really have to have both sides of the equation'.
