If you happen to be in Helsingborg, Sweden, make sure to stop by the Helsingborg Central Station to see the new southern entrance to the train station.
Designed by architecture firm Tengbom, the design was put forward as an entry for a competition held in 2013 by Municipality of Helsingborg, to design a new entrance for the station. Tengbom won the competition in collaboration with Tyréns, an urban planning consultancy company.
Their winning design includes a sculptural timber roof positioned on two slate-clad wall plates, and simple glass panels have been used as protection from the elements.
