Fusion of infrastructure, architecture and the urban landscape
published in sb magazine 2/2022
The previously unutilised 1.2 km long rooftop of the southern terminal and depot building of Shenzhen‘s Metro Line 2 has been converted into a vibrant sports- and playscape. Activity areas are an invitation to local schools and clubs for competitive and non-competitive use, and recreation areas serve as meeting places for locals, complemented by panoramic views of Shenzhen Bay. Crossboundaries teamed up with the Shenzhen Nanshan District Government.
