Architects: Büder + Menzel Architekten BDA, Cologne
Breslauer Platz station is the pivotal connection between Cologne’s mass transit system and the Cologne Central Station. It can therefore be understood as the city’s business card for visitors. The bespoke lighting solution is very efficient from a technical standpoint, and fulfils the highly complex demands for a transportation facility of this size.
At the same time, the lighting effect has been effectively combined with the architecture, making the building’s transparency, expanse and complexity perceptible while maintaining a discreet luminaire design.
