This project is about creating a landmark for Lergravsparken, an underground metro station in Copenhagen, Denmark.


I have explored how concrete and textile can be combined in a way that will create an imprint of the textiles aswell as creating a connection to the environment above ground.


The design is developed to include access to passangers who have difficulty reading, bad eyesight, trouble hearing the announcment-call upon arrival.

This project is a design suggestion developed for Lergravsparken station.

I have created different elements from knitted samples to be casted in glass fiber concret. I wanted to incorporate the landmark from above ground - the park and ended up using the shaped of leaves as a figurative form for my samples
