Design

edit

The station is themed around "Riding the Tides" (Chinese: “弄潮”) . The purple, wave-shaped ceiling on both sides of the concourse and the central white linear folding lights resemble the surging tides of the Qiantang River. The walls and pillars of the platform reflect the colors and textures of the tidal flats. The combination of shaped light strips and stainless steel materials is filled with a modern technological atmosphere, aiming to continue the historical essence of the Qiantang River tides while also providing a sense of modernity.
