Design Concept for Munich Subway Station Renovation

The focus lies on a resource-efficient and sustainable upgrade of the existing structures. This includes not only improving the technical infrastructure but also enhancing the stations’ aesthetics and functionality. Preserving the individual character of each station is just as important as the targeted use of standardized construction elements, allowing for efficient and cost-effective implementation and maintenance.

Existing design potentials are complemented by innovative new elements. As a result, Munich’s subway stations are becoming modern, welcoming, and barrier-free public spaces that meet the diverse needs of passengers. This redesign promotes not only functionality but also user well-being.

Analysis of the existing conditions

Line Concepts U2/U5 & U3/U6

For example, the U2/U5 line concept emphasizes length and movement along the platform through linear lighting, dark ceilings, and dynamically designed rear track walls. In contrast, the U3/U6 concept highlights color-accented columns and uses the stations’ generous ceiling height to integrate expansive lighting systems.
