The facility is one of several service stations along the 129-kilometer-long lakefront ecological corridor that serve visitors. According to the design proposal, the structure is not only a service infrastructure, but also a public facility with viewing opportunities and activities for both tourists and residents. The design employs a landscape architectural method that minimises environmental impact while remaining in tune with the natural surroundings of Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, and attractive towns. The structure unfolds from south to north, responding to the dual orientation of avoiding trees, linking roads, facing Cangshan Mountain to the rear, and overlooking Erhai Lake to the front. This creates a platform for panoramic views and a shelter for short visits. A further important component of the design is climate concerns. Beyond the practical spaces, such as toilets and a small store, the design attempts to open up as much of the area underneath the roof as possible. This allows for total air circulation and the introduction of picturesque vistas, which creates a breath-like character and a sense of free permeation between the inside and outdoors. The localized context served as inspiration for the material selections. Three primary materials—wood, concrete, and rubble stone—for modern expression and take a number of actions to attain low-carbon sustainability. Nowadays, the station serves as a daily getaway and serves as a platform for urban public life in addition to being an observation area and rest area. The building's straightforward and welcoming design makes it accessible to everybody. Rich with different activities, this station is slowly becoming a compelling "living landscape," striving to become part of the natural environment.
