Located in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, this project is a transportation hub integrating subway, ferry, and commercial functions. It features a visually transparent large-span roof achieved through a tensile membrane structure. Combined with the glass curtain walls on the ground level, the design ensures an unobstructed view of the riverside landscape. The main functions are concentrated underground, seamlessly integrating intercity railway drop-off/pick-up and transfer flows with commercial and exhibition spaces. The design not only respects the historical and hydrological context of Wuhan’s Jianghan Guan area but also enhances its commercial value as a popular downtown district. The wing-like ruled-surface roof echoes the traditional legendary creature of Hubei, while the carved-out atrium pays homage to the Wuhan Railway Station. Through its historical context, modern commercial value, form, and spatial design, the project achieves an organic integration with the site itself.
