The art in the new Metro

Now that the underground is being extended, the focus is once again be on the artistic design. We continue building on Stockholm underground's tradition – art as part of the overall design of the stations.
Each new station will have a unique expression that also helps improve security and orientation for passengers. The new stations will have design-related qualities that make the environment memorable for occasional visitors and an interesting place to be for recurring visitors.
