FARRINGDON STATION LONDON, UK

6500m² with high aesthetic standards and structural requirements, realized by mbX.

6500M² WITH HIGH AESTHETIC STANDARDS AND STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS, REALIZED BY MBX.

In 2017 mbX was asked to partner as a concrete specialist, working on the realization of another stunning project: Farringdon Station in London, UK. The project was challenging and complex, partly because of the high aesthetic requirements, but also due to the high public safety requirements. To meet both, mbX designed a special concrete mix (which passed the bomb-blast test) and unique single and double-curved moulds to produce the desired elements. The panels were nominated for a Quality Award by Crossrail.
