communication &
visualization - bus shelter
client: Jönköpings Kommun
duration: 2 weeks
delivery: 2025
brief: develop a set of communication materials that capture and express the full essence of the urban furniture design previously created by Håkan Olsson at Cliff Design.
intention and process
By actively communicating this newly designed bus shelter, we aimed to highlight the value designers bring when collaborating with public institutions like the City of Jönköping, where architects traditionally dominate.
Designers go beyond creating visually appealing solutions. We focus on understanding the users’ needs and fostering inclusive, constructive dialogue to ensure all voices are heard and integrated into the final outcome.
From early sketches inspired by insightful conversations with collaborators and users, to visuals highlighting the bus shelter’s key features, we used a range of graphic techniques to communicate our mindset and design process to the audience.
modularity
Visualizing modularity was key. It ensures the shelter can adapt to different environments, letting the city tailor each configuration of the shelter to answer local needs. It also allows for easy repair or upgrades, supporting sustainability through simple assembly and disassembly.
From technical views of 3D models used for communication to the project partners, I created artworks meant to reflect the precision at hand!
Here is the final animation showing all parts of the bus shelter coming together in an artistic way. It is aiming at conveying a sense of simplicity in how the shelter is actually made, including few parts and relatively simple assembly or dissassembly.
