>Torpe says these elements make the train highly representative of the country. He estimates the studio spent more than 15,000 hours on the design. “We went all the way into these details to create the Danish train,”
I duuno mate, maybe my monitor calibration is way off but to me, the renderings make it look pretty dull and depressing inside considering all the effort he gloats about and what Danish weather is usually like. Like some cheap IKEA furniture using Quake's color pallete. Austrian and Swiss trains look much nicer and cheerfull than that on the inside.
- mikl 3y agoMany of the renderings are supposed to show how it’ll look when it’s dark outside the train, since the whole winter, that’s what it’ll be when people are taking the train from/to work. Denmark only has 8-ish hours of daylight in the winter, mostly co-located with the working hours, so it makes a lot of sense to focus on how the experience will be then. And they’re trying to go for “warm and cozy”. Looks good to me at least. When it’s bright outside the inside lighting goes brighter and cooler.

- j7ake 3y agoYeah looking at the photo and reading the 15k hours in design makes me a little suspicious that the designer wasn’t working very effectively. The final design looks not better than other high doors trains in Europe. Designer should have just copied one of the existing designs and saves themselves 14999 hours. Here is the Spanish high speed train, put in service in 1992 (30 years ago!), from my untrained eye they look comparable. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renfe_Class_100 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renfe_Class_100
