Set in the Shanghai Expo Culture Park, this project reimagines existing industrial steel trusses as the frame for an elegant new aluminium structure. Combining a cable-net and polygonal grid system, the design achieves transparency and structural lightness on an ambitious scale. The result is a striking fusion of old and new.
An imaginative and technically intricate reuse project that brings new life to an old industrial steel frame. By inserting a lightweight cable-net greenhouse within the existing structure, the team created a bold juxtaposition of old and new. The result is both visually striking and structurally inventive, a confident blend of adaptive reuse, expressive engineering, and thoughtful design.
