Sunny Bay Station
2005
After developing several concepts for a lightweight steel and fabric roof for the spur station to Disney Land Hong Kong, Tristan Simmonds was seconded to Hong Kong to carry out the complete engineering and detail design.
The option to enclose the internal space for air conditioning was included in the detailing however the natural cooling effect of air flow over the roof combined with low level 'atomisers' made it unnecessary.
The project was awarded Business Week / Architecture Record China Awards Best Green Project 2008, Professional Green Building Council Green Building Award Grand Award in New Building Category 2006 and the Hong Kong Institute of Architect Merit Award 2005.
