The aim of this project is to “extend” and merge the train station platforms into the existent places close to it.

The platforms will provide the visitor different experiences and after they will be “dropped” in the woods so as in Sugar C i t y.

Each platform has certain pattern taken from the natural textures and urban trace of the site.
