Model 085_Anderston Bus Station, Glasgow – Miniature Concrete Model
Hand-cast in fine concrete. Shaped by memory.
Some buildings become part of the rhythm of everyday life. Anderston Bus Station in Glasgow is one of those places. Designed as part of the ambitious Anderston redevelopment, its sweeping concrete canopies and bold structural forms transformed an ordinary transport interchange into a striking piece of modern architecture. It remains one of the city's most recognisable examples of post-war Brutalist design, proving that even the most practical buildings can leave a lasting impression.
This model was all about capturing elegance in concrete. The long roofline, deep overhangs, and repeating structural rhythm needed to feel balanced at a smaller scale. I spent time refining the proportions until the model held the same confidence and sculptural quality as the original building.
A small cast of one of Glasgow's most distinctive civic landmarks.

Brief Overview:
Anderston Bus Station was built as part of the wider Anderston Centre development, an ambitious mixed-use project that sought to reshape a large area of central Glasgow during the 1970s. The station's sweeping concrete canopies and expressive structural forms reflect the confidence of post-war civic architecture while providing practical shelter and circulation for thousands of passengers. Today it remains an important transport hub and a significant surviving piece of Glasgow's modernist heritage.

My concrete models are made to order and individually hand-cast in solid concrete. This means that each piece will have distinctive markings and textures from the curing process in the concrete. This is a natural part of the material and will mean that no two pieces are ever exactly the same.

Materials
Materials
My concete models are all made using a fine grain quickset cement with a polymer additive. This gives a good balance between strength and detail casting. However concrete is a brittle material so the models are delicate and can break with impact.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Concrete is a brittle material so these models are delicate objects. They can be chipped or cracked easily and need to be protected from knocks or falls.
My concrete mix is also not waterproof so you should protected your model from damp and moisture.
Extreme changes in temperature will cause expansion and contraction inside the concrete model potentially leading to cracks forming. Keep your model out of direct sunlight and away from heating systems.
