Nápad využít pro zastávku návrh sídla pražské Národní knihovny z pera J. Kaplického byl podporen jak pozustalými známého architekta, tak mestskou cástí Brno-sever, na jejímž území se stavba nachází. Prístresek má oproti originálnímu návrhu pudorys jen sedm krát sedm metru. Ve sklolaminátové skorepine jsou umísteny prosvetlovací otvory vcetne hlavního "oka" nad vstupem. Jaká je budoucnost originálu nikdo neví, ale s nejvetsí pravdepodobností nebude nikdy postaven...
EN:
Idea of using draft of the Prague National Library, which was made by famous architect J. Kaplicky, as pattern for shelter, was supported by Kaplicky family same as by the city district Brno-sever, where is depicted bus stop located. Shelter has maybe only 7x7 meters ground plan, what is like nothing in compare with whole building of original proposed library, but it pretty well copy its shape and colour by painted fibreglass shell. Shelter also includes main "eye" above the entrance.
