Developing signage for Copenhagen’s new circular metro line was an exercise in precision, minimalism and, as such, generosity. Designed with the thousands of daily passengers in mind, the new signage needed to inspire confidence - an open invitation to explore the city. The overall design, inspired by Per Mollerup’s previous work for the M1 and M2 lines, integrates seamlessly with the existing system and provides an accessible overview of the entire Copenhagen Metro. The renewed passenger information system was completed with reworked colour definitions, motion sequences for departure boards, highly legible typography, pictograms and a tight structuring and orchestration of all information.
