Five bus stations across Abu Dhabi, each developed in two complete design languages so the client could choose one identity for the whole network.

Option A is a folded shell roof over a glazed concourse; Option B is a vaulted arcade with perforated arabesque infill. Plan, platform layout and technical package stay the same in both, so the choice is about character rather than function.
