placement is everything !

the 1978 dupont subway station on the toronto transit commission's line 1, is covered on all levels in small circular orange tiles, including the built-in concrete benches. did i mention that they're orange ?

 

the focal point at platform level are glass mosaic floral murals designed by artist james sutherland, the work is entitled ' spadina summer under all seasons '.

 

the only complaint i have is that the large mosaic's centre is interrupted by large concrete support pillars between the two platforms.

 

an obvious first world problem on my part.
