MAD unveils Train Station in the Forest in Jiaxing
Chinese architecture studio MAD has revealed its design for Train Station in the Forest in Jiaxing, China, which will see the studio rebuild a historical railway station and complement it with a new underground terminal.
MAD s development will see two sunken waiting halls lit through skylights and glass curtain walls built on either side of existing overground platforms, while a basement level will contain extensive shopping areas under a redeveloped park.
Train Station in the Forest will be nestled among trees
At the centre of the 35.4 hectares proposal will be a fullscale reconstruction of the historical Jiaxing train station, which was originally constructed in 1907 but destroyed in the second Sino-Japanese war in 1937.
