Signalling guidance system with identity-creating spatial sculpture ‘The Flow’. In close collaboration with the Berlin based design agency No Pink Studio, a space-defining intervention was created at Berlin's Südkreuz railway station that combines functionality with design conciseness. The aim was to develop an identity-creating signage system that makes the complex spatial structure of the transport hub intuitively tangible.
The central element is a consistent colour concept that unfolds across all levels - from the S-Bahn entrances to the long-distance platforms. The visual continuity enables clear spatial orientation and guides travellers through the facility in a natural way. The implementation required detailed construction planning preparation, supported by extensive material studies, colour sample tests and safety-related evaluations. Only through the precise interaction of all those involved in the project was it possible to realise a solution that meets the high functional requirements as well as the design demands. The result is an innovative orientation system that is used by over 200,000 passengers every day. The conceptual strength and consistent implementation were honoured with a ‘Special Mention’ in the German Design Award in 2022.
