TEST TUBES Transport for London has put lighting at the centre of the design vision for its new-look London Underground tube stations
B
ack in December, Transport for London unveiled a set of nine design principles that, it argued, would underpin the future look and feel of London Underground stations. The so-called London Underground Station Design Idiom (LUDI) was developed with design company Studio Egret West. It is intended to ensure its stations have a clean and uncluttered feel (at least in design terms rather than, say, at the height of rush-hour), are welcoming and comforting and yet do not lose the network’s sense of heritage and consistent design.
