OMA to design new identity for Hong Kong transit authority

Headed by Rem Koolhaas, OMA and its research unit AMO are to formulate a comprehensive study into the mass transit system in Hong Kong entitled ‘Railway Vision 2020’, initially designing two prototype stations to open before 2014. OMA will collaborate with Stanford University, the City University of Hong Kong and the University of Hong Kong on the project, undertaking extensive site analysis, branding and identity research, observation of the everyday usage patterns of the system by commuters, and sustainability research.

OMA partner-in-charge David Gianotten commented: "We are honoured to contribute to the identity of one of Hong Kong's most important and efficient companies, as well as the overall identity of Hong Kong, through this project. OMA's history of research and its dedication to the development of the city will be crucial for our approach to the work." OMA’s design for the first two stations will include a rethinking of all the elements of a station: its engagement with the street level, its connections, concourses and platforms, station furniture, circulation and way-finding, and MTR’s visual identity.
