Chester Station

Our design approach introduces contemporary forms whilst respecting the original station principles.

Pre-patinated copper is used to articulate a clear difference between the new and the old.

We have opened up a refurbished concourse with new facilities, improved circulation and waiting areas, as well as new commercial opportunities including retail and catering units.
