Stations à Nice
Creation of an architectural charter for underground stations – affirmation of a network identity. Implementation in practice on two stations in the heart of the city.
All stations are deployed in a consistency of scale, approach and use, with spaces that are both clear and distinguishable. To this network logic, a logic of places is superimposed; each station claiming and affirming the particularity of the site in which it is located. The formal choices, materials and implementation are made so that the whole is part of the long term, beyond the trend effects, in order to guarantee a real durability of the works.
The unity is created around a style that belongs to the Nice landscape and extends from the tramway on the surface to the underground section, finding the same recurring elements: noble materials, transparency, constructive hierarchies, interior design (walls, ceilings, floors, stairs, mezzanine hoppers, lighting, flow management).
