Unst Bus Shelter, Bus shelter in Baltasound, Shetland Islands, Scotland.
The bus shelter features permanent furnishings including a sofa, television, and decorative elements that change according to various themes throughout the year.

Local residents participate in regular redecorations of the shelter, incorporating themes from global events to seasonal celebrations, forming a display of community creativity.
