The interior of Daxing Airport, designed by Zaha’s team of colleagues, is almost omnipresent in Zaha’s signature “streamline” curvature.

The massive roof is constructed using a spatial grid, in which rigid steel is woven into a graceful, free-form scalloped surface.

From the roof down to the lower levels, the glass in the openings resembles a blue, psychedelic planet.

The railway from Beijing Daxing Airport to Xiongan is expected to open by the end of 2020, when passengers from Tianjin and Tangshan are expected to take the high-speed train directly to the Daxing Airport terminal.

%Arabica Coffee On West Jianguo Road, Shanghai

There are five %Arabica coffee stores in Shanghai, and this one, located on Jianguo West Road in Xuhui District, is ranked number one in the hearts of coffee lovers, designed by Zhou Ping Aoyama.

The 50-square-foot building, bisan pa niana, doesn’t seem special on the whole, but it eschews the usual approach to façades in favor of curved transparent glass and a small courtyard, which unexpectedly allows the coffee shop to have a dialogue with the entire street.

West Jianguo Road is one of Shanghai’s most romantic neighborhoods, lined with sycamore trees. The light and shadows of the trees and people outside are all visible as part of the shop.

When I was there, I could see people standing on one side of the street, drinking coffee, talking and taking selfies. I think the free atmosphere created by the architecture is more interesting than the buildings themselves.
