Dostoevskya Metro Station

After some intense research, I discovered that there's a subway in Moscow that is sort of a memorial to Dostoevsky.  Now the architecture of the subway is kind of standard but the murals painted all over the walls are very beautiful. The Station itself puts off a very melancholy vibe, with most of the colors used are shades of gray and dark purple. There's one article that claims the station itself cause people to become depressed and indirectly force them to the point of suicide. I have attached an article that features a gallery of the station so you can see what it looks like for yourself.
