oh my! the first bus stop shown is from my city… that’s totally weird, cos i’m so used to em that i forget how amazing they are, everyday i pass in front of this one to go to my school… well, they were designed on 90’s; the very first ideia was from a local architect – which was our mayor. By now he travels around the world talking about urban planning, he’s simple a genium: Jaime Lenner. i’m totally facineted by his crazy solutions, i’m about to start next year archicteture college…

These are fantastic!! Anyone want to design a flying bird bus stop for a new adult literacy campaign? Check out our website – http://www.leamos.org. The metaphor we use is that to learn to read and write is to fly out of a cage.
