botanically yours

Not surprisingly, science is one theme in the artworks of Universitetet subway station. Artist Francoise Schein has created a tribute to Swedish botanist Carl von Linne.

global commuting

Our subway network is confined to the central part of Stockholm County. Still, one never knows when a world map might come in handy.

tree optimization

Look upon it this way. Growing involves more or the less the same effort regardless of location so if you're a tree you might as well choose to grow next to a station entrance and be admired by commuters all day long.

happy stairs

Renovation mayhem tends to cause inconveniences. Not so in Huvudsta. Upstairs or downstairs, smiles are everywhere.

a northern hub

Once upon a time the subway network hadn't been extended to Danderyd Municipality. Several regional bus lines terminated in the inner city, contributing to the daily traffic jam known as rush hour. Nowadays there's a major bus terminal by Danderyd University Hospital and many lines terminate right here, above the subway station.

autumn on my mind

The warmth lingers for yet a while and it's good to be back in the routine. Like waiting for a city bus.
