Anderston Bus Station – Miniature Concrete Model

Model 085_Anderston Bus Station, Glasgow – Miniature Concrete Model Hand-cast in fine concrete. Shaped by memory. Some buildings become part of the rhythm of everyday life. Anderston Bus Station in Glasgow is one of those places. Designed as part of the ambitious Anderston redevelopment, its sweeping concrete canopies and bold structural forms transformed an ordinary transport interchange into a striking piece of modern architecture. It remains one of the city's most recognisable examples of post-war Brutalist design, proving that even the most practical buildings can leave a lasting impression. This model was all about capturing elegance in concrete. The long roofline, deep overhangs, and repeating structural rhythm needed to feel balanced at a smaller scale. I spent time refining the proportions until the model held the same confidence and sculptural quality as the original building. A small cast of one of Glasgow's most distinctive civic landmarks.
