This proposal for the Kaohsiung Cruise and Ferry Terminal is thought up based on the flow of people arriving and leaving the port.
The building behaves like two stomachs , one that collects and distributes to people arriving in the city and another that manages the waiting and boarding of travelers leaving Kaohsiung.
A third system appears, which will be the one configured by the commercial program .
