METRO STATION "KLENOVIY BULVAR 2" (COMPETITION CONCEPT)

The METRO STATION 'KLENOVIY BULVAR 2' redefines urban architecture with its groundbreaking design by Studio-TA. This innovative ground pavilion features a semi-transparent structure that harmoniously integrates with the surrounding landscape. The alternating stained-glass windows and aluminum panels echo the silhouettes of centennial trees, creating a seamless visual connection with the nearby 'Kolomenskoye' park. This design not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also serves as a functional space that attracts both commuters and nature lovers alike.

One of the most striking features of the pavilion is its chameleon color palette, derived from the Rockpanel Chameleon/ALCOTEC Chameleon collection in Tropical Sunrise. This unique color scheme allows the pavilion to shift hues throughout the day, offering an ever-changing visual experience that captivates onlookers. As the natural light changes, so do the colors of the structure, reflecting the vibrant dynamics of the surrounding environment. At night, the illuminated stained-glass windows come to life, showcasing the pavilion's aesthetic qualities and inviting passengers to explore further.

The interior of the METRO STATION 'KLENOVIY BULVAR 2' is designed to evoke a sense of tranquility akin to walking through a park. Central gallery columns are designed to resemble the trunks of maple trees, complete with spherical crowns that create an immersive atmosphere. Passengers are encouraged to relax on benches nestled among these columns, giving them the sensation of sitting beneath the shade of trees in a park. This thoughtful design fosters a peaceful environment that contrasts with the bustling city life outside.

The station's ceiling, inspired by the chameleon color palette, transitions between vibrant shades of yellow and scarlet, mimicking the seasonal changes of maple leaves. This dynamic ceiling design enhances the overall experience for passengers, making them feel as if they are strolling through a forest of maple trees. Additionally, the walls of the platform are adorned with plastic materials that symbolize trees, while strategically placed mirrors reflect the central platform and its passengers, creating an illusion of endless park alleys framed by foliage.

The flooring of the platform is meticulously designed to resemble park paving, seamlessly integrating the station into the park-like environment it aims to create. Floor lamps, resembling fallen autumn leaves, enhance the naturalistic feel of the space, providing soft illumination that guides passengers. The overall design of the METRO STATION 'KLENOVIY BULVAR 2' is not just a transit hub; it is a celebration of nature and architecture, transforming the daily commute into a serene experience.
