Practice appointed to design two stops on new line with Norway’s A_Lab

Zaha Hadid Architects has been commissioned to design two of the six stations on Oslo’s new Fornebubanen metro line.

It will work with Norwegian practice A_Lab on the stations for the 8km line – which will link the Fornebu peninsula site of Oslo’s decomissioned airport to the west of the city centre.

ZHA and A_Lab will design the Fornbuporten and Fornebu Senter stations for the line, which will support the development of 6,000 new homes and civic, cultural and corporate developments expected to provide up to 25,000 new jobs.
