A thin roof on slender columns shelters travellers and frames the valley beyond the tracks.

01 — Context
The site sat between existing streets and an underused public space. Rather than a landmark, the client asked for a building that would repair the missing edge and stay open to the city every day of the week.

02 — Materials
Local timber, pale site-cast concrete and lime plaster. Three materials, left unfinished, so the building ages without maintenance and stays calm from season to season.
