The [Californian Pacific View Mall](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unbounded-sanctuary) provides a bus stop fit to make riders feel at home. With its corkscrew form reaching 36ft in height, the Dennis Oppenheim Bus Home signifies the [homeward journey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baggage-claim-mirrors) of passengers. It is configured like a coach at one end, and gradually takes the shape of a house at the other.
