About the project
A modern grey city lacks bright colors and green plants, especially in the center, so the author wanted to bring a spirit of coziness to a place that many citizens attend.
The project features a colonnaded metro station with two rows of columns, soft and floating in shape. On both sides, they’ll have panels with entwining plants, creating an illusion of tree trunks. The ornament on the ceiling creates an effect of sun rays penetrating through tree branches and twigs. Between the columns, there are wooden benches. A wall of artificial moss is a sight for eyes.
The color pallet includes greens and oranges.
