Boon Edam Fills Stockholm Central Station with Light

Boon Edam ’ s entry solution needed to be true to the authentic beauty and atmosphere of the original space while still meeting the modern demands placed on traffic flow and energy savings .
Boon Edam , a global leader in security entrances and architectural revolving doors , has installed a Boon Edam entrance solution as part of a renovation project for the Stockholm Central Station terminal in Sweden .
Originally designed in 1871 , Stockholm Central Station has a long , proud history , and the building itself features magnificent artworks and architecture .
The building is historically listed and as such , officials have an obligation to protect its architectural features in any upgrades or renovations that are undertaken .
The current generation of commuters is very discerning in their public transport needs .
They place a high emphasis on using a facility which is efficient , sustainable , and easily accessible , but one that is aesthetically pleasing too . A dignified , impressive entrance is key to a comfortable customer experience and is proven to leave a lasting impression on the visitor
