The task is to reimagine and redefine these existing spaces &#8211; assigning them new functions and atmospheres to ensure their long-term relevance. The project for the station area exemplifies a new reading of the site\u2019s inherent qualities. Situated directly at the harbor basin, and through precise interventions, the existing fabric is brought into a new light.<br><br>A simple, graphic surface marking transforms the existing asphalt into a patterned carpet that extends across the station square, incorporating the historic station building and the SBB platform. The building itself is visually repositioned &#8211; now standing directly on the square. From the platform, the view opens toward the harbor basin &#8211; the station square becomes a platform by the water.<br><br>Relocating the existing bicycle station to the side of the building frees space for a new green area oriented towards the lake: a &#8220;window to the water.&#8221; To support local rainwater retention, planting beds are cut directly into the asphalt. These not only contribute to the urban microclimate but also create shaded, attractive places to linger &#8211; right where the lake and city meet.<br><br>Two bus stops are added near the relocated bicycle station, directly adjacent to the station hall. The result is a finely interconnected mobility hub, offering seamless connections between modes of transport &#8211; an intermodal node at the heart of Romanshorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13006,"menu_order":109,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"project-type":[59],"project-tag":[87,212,89,91],"class_list":["post-9254","projects","type-projects","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project-type-public-space","project-tag-open-space-concept","project-tag-railway-station","project-tag-reuse","project-tag-streetscape"],"acf":{"featured":false,"hero_image":null,"home_order":0,"main_images":[13006,13012,13010,13008,13022,13014,13016,13018,13020],"process_images":[13024,13026,13028],"hover_image":13026,"hide":false},"translations":{"en":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/projects\/2588-railway-station-romanshorn\/","de":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/projekte\/2588-bahnhof-romanshorn\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/9254","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/projects"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/9254\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18027,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/9254\/revisions\/18027"}],"acf:attachment":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13028"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13026"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13024"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13020"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13018"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13016"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13014"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13022"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13008"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13010"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13012"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13006"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13006"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9254"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"project-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project-type?post=9254"},{"taxonomy":"project-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.studiovulkan.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project-tag?post=9254"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
