Importance of good Architecture in Metro Stations and Bus Depots

What’s inspiring about modern architecture is that it never ends. There’s always something new to see every other day: building something new is always ongoing in this modern world! One of the most common architecture that has been with us since a long time has to be Metro Stations.

We see those almost every single day. Another structure that we don’t usually get to see that often are Bus Depots- a garage for storing and maintain buses.

When we talk about metro stations, many of us know that the public transports needs to be visually appealing, clean and hygienic. Sadly, a lot of times we come across metro stations that have been misused by the public. Walls are soiled and there’s often graffiti and other markings made on them. Therefore, to overcome this problem, we provide a solution with our product Fahrenheit (vitreous enamel). Vitreous enamel has been used for the Salt Lake Stadium at Kolkata and what’s best about it is that the materials used in vitreous enamel make it resistant to dirt, scratches and graffiti- 2 common problems that disrupt buildings and architecture. So our metro stations and other structures always remain remarkable!

The interiors of the metro stations can always be revamped and made to look aesthetically beautiful. Not to mention, the materials used for the interiors need to be durable and sustainable so it always stays as good as new and doesn’t require a lot of maintenance.

For Bus Depots, vitreous enamel can completely change the overall appearance of the garage and make it look much better. The walls stay clean and eventually, maintaining the building becomes much easier. When it comes to roofing in these structures, it is important for both Metro Stations and Bus Depots. A good, solid roof can completely change the look of these structures and make them look eye catching.

There are quite a few inspiring metro stations around the world that are

nothing short of breathtaking and pleasing to the eyes: T-Centralen in Stockholm, Sweden has beautiful blue and white Roman laurel wreaths, Toledo Metro Station in Naples, Italy where they’ve used Bisazza glass mosaic tiling as well as LED lighting. The blue colour and sparkling walls are dreamy and make you feel like you’re underwater!
