My bike leaning against “Connections” in a bus shelter at 23rd & Crystal City Drive, Arlington VA, by Virginia-based artist Barbara Bernstein who created artwork incorporated into the windscreens of seven Potomac Yard/Crystal City Transitway stations. “Connections” contribute comfort, sustained visual engagement, legibility and safety to the transit environment. Each windscreen has an iteration of a simple line becoming an intricate, flowing interdependent pattern. The design provides a unifying concept for the seven stations overall, while distinguishing each station individually through color and creating distinct landmarks.
