Molndalsbro
The everyday comings and goings of trains and buses have been given shape in this muniicipality close to the city of Gothenburg. Gothenburg is a city in the province Vastergotland on the west coast of and it is the second largest sity in Sweden, after Stockholm.
The existing bridge links the two parts of the community together.The new structure unphasizes this character, and gives shelter from the wind. The big canopy allows buses to pass under it. By defining the paths between the bus stops and leaving the areas in between open, the large structure is less massive and open to the sun.
The edge of the roof is designed as a W, going the rather thick construction a slim and vigorous character. The leaning facade announces the station to the centre of the city. The materials have been chosen for their permanence and beauty over time. Facade and floors are covered with slates and the tined glass covers the ground with colours. The ceilings are covered with ribs of untreated larch.
