A three-tiered petrol station due to be built in Warsaw next year has been shortlisted as a finalist in two categories of the World Architecture Festival to be held in Berlin in November. Designed by Maciej Jakub Zawadzki of the KAMJZ studio, the Shell station will not only incorporate futuristic technologies and environmentally friendly solutions, but also feature a rooftop park.

Although construction costs are estimated to be double those of a regular petrol station, the project has already been hailed for introducing several energy efficient innovations such as a carwash that will use rainwater collected from the top-floor gardens.
