The bus shelter is a simple yet refined architectural composition of two materially contrasting elements: a heavy cast in place concrete wall that serves as structure and as a bench, and a steel canopy frame, fabricated off-site, delivered by truck, and set into place. -- ArchDaily

Bus Stop Kressbad, Krumbach, 6942 Krumbach, Austria designed by Rintala Eggertsson Architects
In our approach to the task of designing a shelter for the bus passengers, we felt therefore compelled to address this important activity by giving the building a second function; a tribune where one could watch a game of tennis on the field.
During our study trip to Bregenzerwald in the early phase of the work we learned about the local building tradition of combining more than one function under one roof – typically the dwelling and the animal stalls. This building typology is seen widely around the area and became soon an important inspiration for us to combine the two functions we had into one building. -- ArchDaily
