Yongning Station
Yongning Station is a small urban complex in Yongning, China. Public toilets are the main function, combined with leisure, exhibition and other supporting services. The building opens a visual channel between the city and the landscape, and the plan forms a shape like the number eight. Along the route, a public exhibition hall faces the river on the left, an inward-looking public toilet area stands on the right, and a narrow corridor passes among osmanthus trees. The screen is the key element that organizes space and frames the scenery.
