In this design, by Chris Lee and Rory Heath of Dalhousie University, they explored the use of steel in a small scale project of a bus shelter. A single span of seven meters was only what was given to work within, to come up with a shelter that could provide protection and has a unique design in the same time. The use of steel to create a permeable shelter was the main focus of this design, it was invisible to make the passenger visible, yet it holds a distinctive character within its surrounding environment. The site located in downtown Halifax has a very heavy flow pedestrians and vehicles. The design used the primary structure of the old bus shelter that already existed, then implementing new features within it. Such as, the extended beam and sliding door panels. The modular components of this design allow it to be adapted to various sites and conditions.
