Assignment 2: Bus Stop - Part 3


The site we were given was a very generic site, so I decided to use a suburban setting. I chose a shopping center as the most likely place for folks to need public transportation to or from. After making this decision, I decided to create a bus stop that would juxtapose itself against the landscape. I wanted to use curves and jutting angles in order to establish this look. 


The objective of my design was to produce spaces that are distinct and different but still connected either physically or visually. I believe the paneling tools helped in this concept because I could create interesting screens for people to look through. 


Along with creating distinct, yet connected spaces, I also wanted to design a space which was protected from the elements, like rain and harsh sunlight. I used the roof element and paneled wall elements to create the boundaries and thresholds for the various spaces.
