Content China’s first National Maritime Museum is one of the first buildings to be realized in Lingang New City, a town literally built on water. The rectilinear and symmetri- cal layout of the Maritime Museum is situated directly adjacent to the large cen- tral lake. The museum is organized around a raised plazas. Right in the centre of the museum two 58 m tall roof shells lean against each other, touching at one point only, approx. 40 m above ground. The triangular roof structure was designed as two layers of gridshells that are connected by a series of diagonals. Symboli- cally, two ships are setting sail in the harbour-like configuration of the museum wings and the landscaped open spaces (see pp. 120–126).
