Baku Bus Station 2
The project, which is the continuation of Baku Bus 1, is built near Baku Olympic Stadium. The entire city’s public transport network is provided by this institution.

Baku Bus Station 1
The project, which took place in Baku, the capital city of Azerbaijan, is designed for managing and maintaining city buses in Baku. The entire city’s public transport network is provided by this institution. Our design, which has a total project area of 158 000 sqm, includes management building, facilities for drivers, workshop building, car wash building and training building. The project’s point of origin is parallel to the motorway passing by, a shield wall extending along the structure, and this shield is a structure located behind the wall. In this view, a set indicating the boundary between the road and the field will be taken and a total front façade will be formed. This facade adds value to the structure of the institution. More

McMaster Kinesiology Labs
When the Department of Kinesiology needed to design facilities to house new biomechanics, physiology and motor-control labs using existing space in the Ivor Wynne Centre Building they turned to dpai. Short on time, but in need of a thorough assessment of the space, dpai led user groups through a participatory design process that was crafted specifically to facilitate the compressed schedule. With a scope of work that included all interior design and furniture selection, the end product is filled with light and transparency and a once hidden department was now front and centre.
