Brief Explanation

Field research revealed a part of the real problem: bad smells Bad smells provoke stress, depression and anxiety… And keep people from going into the subway. So together with scent experts we developed a system of automatic scent diffusers that neutralize bad odeurs and spread a mixture of three parfums. Lavender for relaxation, grapefruit for optimism, Jasmine for happiness A combination that prevents feelings of stress and anxiety. This invisible makeover made a visible difference Travellers felt much more comfortable, and even had the impression that waiting times were shorter. After this successful launch , the system will be installed in 10 other metrostations. The Invisible Metro Makeover is part of the Wunderground Project we developed to motivate people to take the metro.
