Solar Bus Stop

The solar bus stop was a project in response to energy crisis that are facing. Solar panels form the roof of the stop and are used to power street lights or nearby traffic lights. These small stops are easily assembled and robust and provide commuters a comfortable sustainable stop.

Lattelicious 2 Go

Lattelicious approached us to come up with some dynamic express stores coming to an airport near you. This design is bright, fresh and flowing and will service your caffeine fix 24 hours a day.
