Shuttle Stop

A shelter for a Philadelphia University shuttle stop is proposed that provides covered and uncovered outdoor seating. A steel structure, skinned in corten steel panels sits into a concrete foundation that is covered over with a layer of gravel for walking upon. The seating is of softer wood planks, giving a materiality to support the warmth of the corten. The roof overhangs as to offer the passenger covering while boarding the shuttle. The southern façade is comprised of angled steel fins to block wind as well as minimize direct sunlight.
