Liana Filling Station

A sculptural cantilevered canopy and service building for a roadside fuel station.

The brief called for a station that would be recognisable from a distance on the approach road. The answer is a folded red canopy carried on V-shaped steel columns, paired with a compact convenience shop, reception kiosk and a curved carwash bay.

The canopy was modelled as a steel portal system with the folded plate roof stiffening the long cantilever, keeping the forecourt free of columns between the pump islands.
