A dreamlike undergroundstation.


I´ve showed some really nice undergroundstations in the past. Question is if this one is´nt one of the cooler ones. I had actually forgotten about this station, located in Vreten, a industrial area, until today when I was going to pick up a rental car as a temporary compensation for our stolen car from the insurance company.

Designed by the japanese Takashi Nahara the station is filled with cubes decorated with the sky. It makes a kind of surreal and dreamy feeling walking on the platform itself. None of the cubes are placed in any orderly fashion and it kind of looks like they´ve just come through the cavewalls.
A must to see if you have five minutes over!

Wow - the Stockholm underground is so much different from the one here in Copenhagen. All our stations look the same.
Nice of you to give us a look!
