The shift to autonomous electric vehicles affects both passenger transportation and industrial logistics in fascinating ways. It's not just about how these spaces look, but about time: how long will someone stay? When does a gas station become a visitor center, a rest stop, or a hotel? How do these spaces work without human attendants? I looked at Pilot Flying J, a legacy brand with significant market share in travel centers, as an opportunity to redesign for 2030 and beyond. Challenge: Can you transform a purely functional, utilitarian structure into an architecturally significant place? Can we rethink what the programming of this type of building should be? Can it be economical and rapidly deployable? Approach: After traveling to San Francisco to learn about autonomous vehicles and visiting Tahoe Reno Industrial Center, one of the major logistical hubs of the West Coast, I identified two distinct user groups. There are travelers using cars, SUVs, trucks, and RVs who need 40 to 60 minutes to charge their vehicles. Then there are long-haul truckers who need places to sleep, shower, and rest for longer periods. I wanted to create a place where both could get the support they needed within their timelines. Both groups could also benefit from shared amenities: a vehicle service center, restaurants, and retail. All of this was designed as a repeatable, scalable system. Outcome: I created a flexible system that blends public and private uses, functioning as an extension of public infrastructure while serving commercial logistics. The core concept was a modular architecture that could adapt to any site. In a high-traffic location like Tahoe Reno Industrial Center, it would include the full range of components. In a less congested location, only the essential elements. The design focused on Tahoe Reno as the complete prototype. I developed standardized wall, floor, and roof components that formed repeatable building blocks. These components could be assembled into larger modules, fabricated in a factory, and shipped to sites across the country.
