Sky Within - Sheila Klein
 |
 |
 |
Working with the underside of the guideway, artist Sheila Klein brings light, color, and form to the concourse of the station. The guideway is and arcade within which to place a sky, and a series of cobra head street fixtures make a galaxy of chandeliers. The sculptural chandeliers hang beneath an architectural graphic of urban camoflage painted on the underbelly of the guideway, providing light to the space. A subtle modulation of the light creates a atmosphere that is softened in contrast to the industrial street lighting outside the station.
Rain, Steam and Speed and Seattle Sunrise - Guy Kemper

Painted glass offer visual interest both to riders and to the surrounding Mount Baker neighborhood. "Rain, Steam and Speed" is a vibrant splash of color acting as a counterpoint to Seattles grey and blue skies. "Seattle Sunrise" on the south face of the station, recalls a joyful sunrise against the earth's horizon.
