Bubble Wrap Bus Stops

2014. Bubble Wrap, Tape, Wire

I wrapped 6 selected existing bus stop seats along Magill Road in green bubble wrap to entertain the public while waiting for a bus and to add an element of comfort to the original hard cold metal seats.

The bubble wrap was layered thickly to create a cushion effect and some seats even had button indents details to make them represent a couch. The intention was to invite the public to sit, while at the same time giving them an opportunity to play while they wait for the bus.

POP while you WAIT !

However, unfortunately without a sign saying SIT ON ME most people avoided using the wrapped seats for fear they were broken, as bubble wraps general use is to protecting things.
