Tottenham Hale Station, London

The colourful Tottenham Hale Station entrance with glass doors and a metallic, curved structure, illuminated with greenish lighting, and bright abstract mural that runs along the upper level, during dusk against a dark navy-blue skyline.

Tottenham Hale Station was redeveloped to support its role as a key interchange following the opening of Stansted Airport.

The scheme connects a new above-ground station structure with a reconfigured underground station, improving movement between the Victoria Line and regional rail services. The new building, conceived as a lightweight “cathedral of glass”, establishes a clear and legible public presence.

The surrounding forecourt integrates transport connections for buses and taxis, with light and water elements contributing to the public realm. The project combines efficiency of movement with a more considered passenger experience, elevating the role of infrastructure within the wider urban context.  

“A transport interchange that balances efficiency with a more considered public experience.”
