    PROJECTS - S-Bahn Station Expo 2000 Hannover Hainholz
 
  The new Hannover railway station designed by Hansjörg Göritz is an extraordinary example of elegance and functionality united in one architectural project. Created and presented at the Expo 2000 as part of a series of railway stations for the new Expo-line, which connects the airport to the exposition headquarters, the Hannover station is animated by “blue cobalt” glass blocks designed to match the exact colour of the German state railway logo.
 
These 19x19x8cm glass blocks were customized in two ways: by colour and technical features.
 
The colour, requested by Hansjörg Göritz and reproduced by Seves, was chosen to represent the railway company responsible for the development of the new Expo-line. The inner structure of the glass block was modified to provide increased technical features to be used in horizontal applications such as walkways and floors.
