The challenge
The steel roof of Dresden's central railway station. A Grunderzeit showpiece. The second World War leaves the station in ruins. Temporary repairs replace the glass domes with timber. The proud domes no longer shed light since then. Norman Foster's design brings the glory days back. An ingenious plan. A transparent glass fabric membrane stretched over the station's roof. Begun in 1999.

The approach
HOMOLA as project manager. Seamless coordination and management of a complex and tight schedule. Renovation and traffic at the same dazzling pace.

The result
Sunlight filters throgh the domes into the station. The steel constructions lay barren in their original glory. Travelers await their trains basking in light.
