ZHA Nordpark Cable Railway.


In the project there are four stations.

A lightweight organic roof structure floats on top of a concrete plinth. The

fluid shapes and soft contours give the appearance of glacier movements.

New production methods like CNC milling and thermoforming allow

computer generated designs to be made into buildings structure.

Parts of the building look like cars, aeroplane wings, yachts. Large cantilevers and small touch down

areas give a floating appearance to the shells.

The concepts of “Shell & Shadow”

generate each station’s spatial quality.

space and time warped and woven around structure

buildings which emerge from the city as sculpture

capable of knitting disparate blocks together

defying changing levels and criss-crossing each other in mid-air
