Colourwave
2025
Local artist Amanda Moore was commissioned to transform Eastleigh Bus Station with a colourful and contemporary design that celebrates Eastleigh’s architecture.
Funded by the UK Shared Prosperity fund, ‘Colourwave’ creates a colourful arrival point for the town centre. The geometric shapes are based on architectural features around the town centre, including decorative bricks, circular windows, arches above doorways and the art deco style façade of the Imperial building.
The design aims to reflect movement and travel through the bus station, into the town and beyond, and it echoes the colourful designs installed on the glazed colonnades in High Street, Market Street and Leigh Road, which were also inspired by the Imperial frontage.
