1) Traffic node design
The sign of triangle near the intersection means priority in Netherlands. If the dip angle of the triangle is consistent with your direction, then you are allowed to past first. If you face with the apex angle of the triangle, you should let others go first. In many cases, this triangle gives priority to the bicycle.
2) Eindhoven Central PlazaThe square in central Eindhoven has a very edgy arch entrance slanting into the ground, which is actually an underground bicycle parking lot. There are escalators for the bicycle to up and down. The underground is a spacious and bright space. The center of the underground space is a glass box that preserves the remains of Eindhoven hundreds of years ago. This design not only solves the problem of bicycle parking in the square, but also protects the historical relics and itself becomes a special landmark of the city square as well.
3) Roningen station square
