One Reed as an Ark

The design employs an expansive, reed-like curved surface to encompass the functions of the ground-floor bus station and the second-foor community living and cultural services. The minimalist form highlights the vitality of the surroundings while establishing a dynamic connection between the urban transit functions on the west side of the site and the Shanjin Plaza on the east.


Bus Stop + Floating Teahouse

The combination of a bus stop and a teahouse—one dynamic, the other tranquil—creates an engaging scene of neighborhood life. From the teahouse on the platform, one can observe the flow of passengers as well as the views of the park and river, offering a unique urban experience. Travelers returning home fnd solace amid the city's hustle and bustle, embraced by a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

The floating volume on the second floor serves not only as a teahouse but also as a neighborhood hub, providing social services, volunteer support, reading spaces, and opportunities for community interaction.
