The Gebze-Darıca Metro Project offers a contemporary and functional contribution to Kocaeli's transportation infrastructure, while also standing out with its architectural design. The eight stations within the project, including concourse and platform areas, offer unique spatial experiences, each themed around the four seasons. This thematic approach reflects both a user-centric design approach and aesthetic richness.
One of the stations in the shared images represents "winter" with its blue and cool tones, while another carries a "summer" theme with its yellow and warm tones. Every detail, from wall coverings and seating to floor orientations and lighting, has been carefully considered to integrate the atmosphere of the respective season into the architecture. Thus, each station becomes not only a transportation hub but also a temporal and sensory stop. This approach, combined with urban furniture and architectural elements, elevates the user experience.
