Week 12 - Cycling Building Exemplars

 

Cycling Center

We Are You + Erik Hallberg

This building was designed to promote cycling and also to provide a place for cyclists of all different types to come and enjoy. It is an interesting example for me to look at as the aims for what it is sets out to bring to the city are similar to the ones I am hoping to achieve.

Denmark Pavilion Shanghai Expo 2010

BIG and ARUP

I found the concept of this building very interesting. The fact that both pedestrians and cyclists could go on a journey around the building and not have to sacrifice their chosen mode of transport to explore the building.
