Cityringen Vibenshus Runddel | Copenhagen
Ceramic tiles from MOEDING were used for the facade design in seven of the 17 new subway stations. At the station Vibenshus Runddel, slate tiles with a special kind of glaze were used. From the front, the viewer sees a wall with white panels. The further down into the station you go, the more you recognize the diversity of this facade. With a newly developed glaze process, only the undersides of the brick tiles were glazed with 5 different colors, which creates a unique, surprising effect.

We opted for ceramic tiles from MOEDING because they offer a pronounced material and surface structure in large formats with a relatively low weight / area ratio and a heavy-duty, robust, vandal-resistant and aging-resistant cladding. The ceramic facade is a non-metallic cladding that allowed us to lay antenna cables for radio communication in the 150 millimeter space behind the panels.
