The project site is known as the Waterfront Rural Gallery, Leisure Vacation Paradise, and National Unity and Progress Demonstration Zone, and the city's unique characteristics are the inspiration for the design. The designer integrates natural spaces such as farmland, mountains, and water into the urban design of the high-speed rail station area, combining the needs of industrial development and the requirements of the comprehensive transportation hub construction. This concept of natural and urban integration has formed a distinct and easily recognizable image feature for the city.

- Production Technology
- In collaboration with China Railway Engineering Group Co., Ltd., a world-class TOD design expert, the design is guided by the TOD concept to connect the underground, ground-level, and elevated comprehensive transportation hubs with the city in a three-dimensional way. This provides technical support for building a comfortable and convenient transportation system, enabling all transportation transfers to be completed within 5 minutes.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenges of the project are to showcase the unique local features of Puzhehei and to create a comprehensive transportation hub that is integrated with the city's development. The design builds upon the original features of the city's rural landscape, extending the pastoral scenery to the building. The building's design mimics the surrounding mountains, and its skyline follows the direction of the mountain range. Additionally, with the use of professional technical methods from China Railway Eryuan Engineering Group Co., Ltd., the project satisfies the requirements of engineering construction.
- Project Duration
- This project started in January 2022 and ended in March 2022 in Qiubei County, Yunnan Province, China.
- Operation Flow
- After arriving at the Puzhehei High-speed Railway Station, tourists can easily transfer to taxis, high-speed trains, buses, bicycles and other transportation facilities.
