The 'spaceship' structure stretches over three main floors, and in its middle a covered atrium slices down, creating an open, airy feel. The central cut-out space has the shape of an elliptical funnel. The atrium opening is wider on the top floor than on the middle one, enabling people on upper floors to peer down the well toward lower floors, where the sightline grows narrower. One hones in on the bottom, where the trains run.
The architect wanted visitors to feel that they’re in a spaceship hovering over the tracks, and also let people experience a greater sense of connection between the lower and upper levels of the subway station – which are usually hidden from one another in the traditional subway layouts.
The 15m atrium visually connects the three floors: the top level (which is actually the ground floor), the middle concourse level B2 (the ticket gate floor) and the lowest floor B5 (the platforms, located 30m below ground level). Columns soar from the middle floor to the uppermost ceiling, enhancing this sense of unification between levels.
