Intercities Trains "Omneo Premium" Normandy
Mission
Normandy is the first region to take delivery of “OMNEO Premium” Bombardier double-decker trains to replace the obsolete Corail trains currently running on the Paris-Caen-Cherbourg and Paris-Rouen-Le Havre lines.
These 40 new trains will come into service in 2020 and can travel at 200 km/hour.
Bombardier commissioned Yellow Window to design this premium version of its intercity train platform with the aim of offering a high level of comfort, particularly with the design of a new seat and a quality feel reflecting the image of Normandy.
Yellow Window has supported Bombardier at each stage of the project: before the order, during the preparation of the design with the Normandy regional authorities and during the establishment of the industrial specifications for the product, working jointly with Bombardier’s design offices and that of the seat manufacturer Compin.

Result
Yellow Window set out to entirely overhaul the train travel experience between Paris and Normandy, giving it new added value.
To make train travel enjoyable again, Yellow Window reviewed its codes using references from other contexts such as planes, cars, homes, etc., where there is greater emphasis on pleasure.
The trains have been designed to offer each passenger:
• A perception of comfort due to the ergonomics of the seats and functional equipment (large tray table,
individual reading light, individual electric and USB sockets, footrest, etc.).
• A carefully designed, relaxing environment due to the choice of colours and materials.
• A perception of quality thanks to the care taken over every detail.
