Maillage architectural pour bardage
The Cesson-Via Silva metro station on metro line B in Rennes, France, is the first of the future ViaSilva eco-city, currently under development. Located in an urban square, it is raised 9 meters above the ground by the viaduct through which the tracks and convoys pass, making it also a viewpoint.
The ovoid shape of the station is built with Candela F natural anodized aluminum metal meshes that, without touching the infrastructure, surround the viaduct. This can be supported by a system of beams that also allows freeing up the interior space of the station for platforms, ticket offices and circulation spaces. Inside, to counteract the aluminum and glass, oak wood ceilings have been installed that, apart from giving warmth to the interior, serve as acoustic insulators.
