IAI 3 Wuxi Metro entrances for train stations

 This was an extremely complex project for prototypical metro entrance design, landscape design and intergration of the new metro that was being projected for Wuxi City, within the Pearl Delta Megalopolis. As the city was developing the first few lines innitially we looked for a solution that could be placed throughout the city, but then moved towards different solutions depending on location. With the cut and fill method of construction , as well as the intense development around the metro entrances afterwards in order to finance the construction these entrances were complex both below and above ground.
