Shanghai Oriental Sports Center in China, Hardback Book

Shanghai Oriental Sports Center in China Hardback

Edited by Meinhard von Gerkan, Nikolaus Goetze

Hardback

Description

"The Shanghai Oriental Sports Center (SOSC) has emerged as a model project of German architecture and engineering skill" is the verdict of the renowned architecture journalist Dirk Meyhoefer in his architectural critique of the Shanghai Oriental Sports Center.

Inaugurated in 2011 on the occasion of the FINA World Swimming Championships, the site brings together the SOSC swimming facilities, a multipurpose venue, and a press centre, whose forms and materials harmonise as an ensemble.

From an urban development perspective, its park grounds merge with their surroundings.

In this volume, the SOSC is presented by the responsible architects and illuminated by means of images and plans.

Dirk Meyhoefer comments on the ensemble in an extensive accompanying critique. Text in English and German.
