Arup, an engineering company, teamed up with PTW Architects and China Building Design Institute to establish a design for the 2008 Beijing Summer season Olympics Aquatics Center design competitors. Their winning idea for the Water Cube combined components of Chinese culture with ingenious products and sustainability requirements.
The cross-company and multidisciplinary group, based in Sydney, Australia with equivalents in Beijing, dealt with job management difficulties and cultural distinctions. The Water Cube ended up being a renowned image throughout the Olympics and supervisors at Arup now question the best ways to take advantage of the effect within the business.
