STOCKHOLM TRAM C20 & C30
Design for the future Stockholm
In 2015 Stockholm Council decided to invest in new trams for the red line. The winner become Bombardier and the work of defining the interior design was started. The customer wanted to change the expression of the fabric in the trams, from an old design with small symbols to something more characteristic for the modern Stockholm. The result become the fabric ”Plattan”, a fabric with a pattern retrieved from the most famous square in Stockholm, Sergels Square.
