Key recommendations
Concerning the approach to the site: the feeling of safety at intersections should be approached more as an urban planning issue, rather than through the application of standards derived from automotive logic.
Concerning the design of the site's ground surface: a public square should be a continuous surface offering coolness in summer and passable ground in winter.
Concerning the generic shelter: the bus shelter, as such, only addresses a relationship to survival if we recognize it only as a "protection" device; architecture, as a cultural device, addresses what enables "living" in the broadest sense, what envelops relations between individuals, and places itself entirely at the disposal of art. The bus shelter must therefore act as a bridge between art and individuals, contributing to the greatness of public space.
