Together with schockguyan architects and vogtpartner lighting design engineers, we defined a set of rules for SBB to increase customer friendliness and capacity in large railway stations.
In addition to space zoning, placement of functional groups and elements as well as lighting and signage measures, we also defined and designed specific products and areas.
A pilot project of select measures was realized in the Basel train station in 2013. A distinctive feature of this concept is the phased implementation with as little interruption of daily operations as possible.

“For customers the overall impression of the station is crucial. Therefore customer benefit can only be generated with the big picture in mind.”
