LA FONCTION OBLIQUE
2025, Dortmund / DE
The basic idea of the design is to transfer the information boards, posters and showcases that are otherwise scattered at tram stops into a new spatial concept. Instead of distributing these information elements on the platform level, they are united under a common roof. These obliquely positioned elements offer a communicative alternative to the otherwise prevailing uncommunicative body posture. The result is a multi-perspective space that gives waiting people a new perspective on themselves and their surroundings. In this way, waiting is transformed from an annoying necessity into a communal and spatially exciting experience.
