SMCC - Coffee Shop / Bus Stop

Located on Fort Street; the existing bus stop leaves something to be desired. With Maine winters being long and quite cold a new shelter is needed. You are given the challenge to create a new bus stop with seating for 20 in an enclosed heated shelter, and covered exterior seating for 10. Along with the bus stop you will create a coffee stand/shop that can be accessed from inside of the bus stop, as well as outside (walk up window). There are many site constraints; the building must fit on the existing bus stop site, you will need to make allowances for the surrounding buildings, roads, and any permanent obtrusions.

You will need to consider a variety of elements, such as
-View and site line for those waiting for the bus.
-Traffic flow at entrance and exits; also circulation in coffee areas.
- Equipment and storage to run a small coffee shop.
-Seating arrangements, will fixed or movable seating be more appropriate.

To begin
-you will need to figure placement and size of structure, traffic flow, and circulation.
-create a concept that will support your design decisions.
-once a building size and shape is determined, create bubble diagrams to layout schematics of the space.
-create a drawing of the front façade, will your building pick up on details on the surrounding buildings, or stand out with its own defining elements.

Once the schematic design has been approved
-create a rendered floor plan, elevations, and furniture plan to scale.
- research and collect images of furnishings that will be used.
- research and select appropriate finishes for your space, all spaces will be considered – ceilings, walls, floors
- create a finish board; include any lighting or signage ideas.
