A landmark for Copenhagen

The Metro information totem is a sculptural landmark, reflecting the city life during daytime, while turning into a glowing column at night, when orientation is difficult. The cylinder in stainless steel acts as a skeleton on which transparent, perforated panels are attached. 

Metro Totem is the result of a 1st prize in the competition issued by Ørestadsselskabet. Holscher Design has completed the design and delivery of Metro information totems in collaboration with the engineering firm Hansen & Henneberg, Ib Andresen and Ørestadsselskabet.
