Ryparken Station, Denmark

With the renovation of Ryparken Station the aim was to improve accessibility to the station so that it can best serve the high numbers of passengers it serves - whether they arrive by bike, bus or transfer between s-trains.

Ryparken Station is a busy transport interchange with the railway bridges overhead Lyngbyvejen’s heavy vehicular traffic. Today, the station appears more accessible due to the enhanced layout with a new forecourt and improved cycle parking facilities. The task has been solved by simplifying and tidying up buildings, materials and functions, while restoring the original architectural qualitiesin the process.

The functions of the station building have been brought together in a new concourse with simple glass façades facing the forecourt. The forecourt itself has been cleared of secondary buildings, given a new unifying paving and 250 new cycle parking spaces. The existing bridge structures have been cleared up and cleaned and the elevated platform buildings recladded.

A simple and effective lighting design gives the forecourt character and improves the feeling of safety and security at night.

Cycling plays a vital role in the cities of tomorrow. It offers a smart response to urban congestion, pollution, and sedentary lifestyles — while strengthening mobility in both city centers and surrounding areas. A well-designed cycling environment makes it easy to choose the bike for everyday travel and connects key functions across the urban landscape.

Architecture leaves a lasting mark. When we work with existing buildings, we take on a responsibility – for the resources, for our architectural heritage, and for creating solutions that stand the test of time. Transformation is about breathing new life into the built environment and identifying new purposes for structures that no longer meet current needs. It demands insight, care and a long-term perspective on climate, economy and social value.
