About Station
Located along the Mumbai-Pune Highway adjoining Kasarwadi railway station, Bhosariis a sparsely populated area with some commercial activity along with the highway. The Pune- Lonavala suburban railway and the MIDC bus station are also situated in Bhosari, necessitating a well-planned metro station at this location. Since Bhosari will prove to be an important station, it must be seamlessly integrated with the surrounding railway and bus facilities.
Keeping pace with the industrial growth of Pune, the Kasarwadi station follows the industrial style station design. Geometric and modular concepts are extended throughout the outer facade and inner structure. The designs make strong architectural statements and relate to their surroundings. Furthermore, the materials used like metallic frames and perforated metal panels depict the manufacturing and industrial base of the region.
The variation is minimal, systematic and highly functional - the louvres bring air and direct ventilation inside the building. To achieve an industrial feel that appropriately reflects the surroundings, a natural colour palette has been used- a mix of greys, neutrals and rustic colours.
