In the city, there are many buildings which we may ignore their existence or aesthetics. Most of them having specific functions and served as part of infrastructure of the city. From flyover bridges to small pavilions, we may pass by them everyday and yet they shapes our way of living.

Most of them due to limited budgets, we hardly find innovative design for these daily life architecture. The client of project wishes us to rethink the new generation of petrol stations and same time responses to local context and history. The challenges of our project is how to rethink the topology but maintain functionality? How we redefine the spatial experiences of petrol stations？

The project is located at pingtan island at fujian province, which is one of biggest tourist islands in China. It has stunning seaviews and humid/windy local climate during the year. Our project site is located at Jinjing Bay main road, where is major road linking Fuzhou and Pingtan. Site area is around 3000m2 and next to a small mountain. Petrol stations have very confined spatial organisation such as vehicle circulation, petrol storage or height requirements. 

Before we start the design of project, we studied the topologies of petrol stations on their spatial organizations. Commonly the stations are designed with big flat steel structural roofs and boxy additions. We also found many modern stations using concrete structures, such as shell or umbrella structure. The variety of concrete structures were representing ambitious ideas for petrol stations at the modern age. But why we only have big flat roofs today?  Why all petrol stations almost looks identical and without any reference to site or history?

Based on specific usage, we may simplify the design task as one single roof and one small building (staff office, supermarket and toilet etc ). The roof design is inspired from traditional village houses in Fujian Province, which is multiple curves seamlessly connected. With this design language, we may create different heights for spatial hierarchy and unify the roof and supporting building as one architecture. The roof is made with long span steel structure and openings are reserved for daylights, it creates museum like space for this petrol station. The external wall of supermarket is cladded with bricks which is also inspired from the traditional village. 

The station also equipped with environmental features such as solar panel and rain water recycle systems. The roof shape is highly incorporated with these systems and not merely aesthetic concerns.

Although we may not stay so long at the station, but the unique roof shape and daylighting shall enhance the joyful experience of petrol intake.
