As part of Architecture Week 2006, Brightblue Studio installed a series of sculptural works around Tynemouth Station, inviting visitors to consider the past, present and future of the structure. The station’s columns were clad using materials in sequence. Pop up models explored alternative forms under the canopy.

Future Platforms was exhibited alongside an ‘open studio’ day, which invited visitors to use origami and paper modelling.
