Since Istanbul is the biggest transport, trade and tourism node between Europe and Asia, this visualization presents appropriate design solution for its new train station – Arc de celerité. This giant cantilevered structure is hovering above the sea level like a giant UFO and a flowing design of this bridge conecting continents takes form of a a natural sculpture. The building itself contains train station, shopping mall, hotel and sea port, all penetrated by the public spaces and greenery which runs along the entire 3 km of the building, connecting the station to the city.
