The Hongdao railway station in Qingdao, China, bears the sea on its roof: the aluminium structure is shaped like giant waves. The impressive roofing is drained by Geberit technology.
Two gigantic waves collide, both towering over 60 metres into the sky. Next to them, other smaller waves roar. Standing in front of the new Hongdao railway station, one imagines oneself in the midst of a stormy natural scenery. The dimensions of this unusual construction are more than impressive: the roof consists of 38,000 curved aluminium panels, its surface area corresponds to the size of eleven football pitches.
