The redevelopment of Malmo Central train station included a large-scale pedestrian tunnel and two new satellite stations. Nola was commissioned to manufacture public seating for the project, and produced custom versions of the Origami bench by Torbjorn Andersson and the Goal backed bench by Thomas Bernstrand. The No 2 bench by Olle Anderson was redesigned for bus shelters and waiting areas. Nola litterbins were also placed throughout the sites. The Elbin litterbins designed by Andreas Sture and Olle Anderson provided containers for general waste while Foga recycling bins by Eva Herdin were laser-cut with words that helped visitors sort items for recycling.
