The Vaughn Metropolitan Station was envisioned as a transportation hub and a pioneer to expand comprehensive utility development around there. The area around the station was challengingly imagined as a new town and a landmark building with an organizing element and focal point was built up. This station is a transportation link across a fast developing region and provides people with various transport alternatives. The operating range of this station includes platform, station hall, and the entrance building located in a north-south linear park that is designated as a central axis within the city. People located at the building can view down to both platform and station hall, the building responds to the envisioned city circumstances and the central axis.
The design of the station is based on the idea to bring daylight into the depths of the building, providing the waiting room with excellent ventilation, and presenting an intuitive route of the train. The four corners of the building are connected by an X-shaped bridge that looks stunning, the voids allow glimpses of trains and platforms below. In addition to convenience and ease of use, geometry and transparency create a safer and more secure transport environment. Space earmarked for future retail opportunities will bring more amenities to the subway station.
The station’s ceiling is made of stainless steel with a mirrored surface finish to reflect light to the entire environment with brightness. The metal ceiling panels capture the actives of moving passengers and pulsing trains and improve the light conditions, the combination of aesthetics and functions can provide passengers with a unique sense. A high-quality project improved with artful and characteristic elements will let people favorably impressed and have a joyful experience.
