Led by Aedas Executive Director Leon Liang, Luohu North Station TOD sits in the Qingshuihe district which enjoys a comprehensive infrastructure and industrial development elements.
The project spans 800m from east to west and is 68m wide from north to south, crossing main and secondary urban roads. Under challenging site conditions, the design balances the engineering progress and operational safety requirements of the railway construction while creating an integrated, sustainable TOD community.
“The Luohu North Station is a pioneering project, covering under and above ground development to create a comprehensive hub that serves the residents,” Leon says.
The design symbolises a close relationship between urban interconnectivity and nature, using the concept of flowing water within rocks to achieve this integration. Interconnected elevated pedestrian systems are specifically designed to link the entire development, creating an urban oasis. Canopies are utilised to form a 24-hour all-weather corridor, shaping an interactive hub with convenient accessibility.
The central plaza, situated above the station, exemplifies the seamless integration of station and city, transforming the development into a multi-layered, interactive destination for leisure and entertainment. The design, featuring staggered boxes projects a futuristic image, reflecting the city’s innovative spirit.
