Sun Valley, Shanghai 2010 Expo Boulevard

SBA Co. Ltd designed the Sun Valley pavilion. The Shanghai 2010 World Expo Boulevard was the entrance to the Expo and major links for its venues. It stretched 1 km from Riverside Park to Yaohua road. Six steel and glass hips and valleys in the membrane were suspended by a structure of masts and tension members. It stood 41m high and 90m in diameter. A pivot system and lighting scheme punctuated the organic design.
