Beijing Railway Station, located in Dongcheng District of Beijing, was built and put into use in 1958 and has a history of 62 years. After the baptism of time, the architectural beauty and spatial level of Beijing Railway Station have been gradually covered up; Lack of historical significance; Various parts of the station also show varying degrees of aging.

In order to solve these problems, it is urgent to reform the space in the station. At present, Beijing Railway Station has become a national cultural protection unit, so the interior design puts forward the idea of "micro transformation", that is, to remove most of the late superfluous content, and the main space is mainly restored and renovated. Among them, lighting has become the most important part of the transformation because of its possibility of transformation and the decisive effect of space.

After Beijing Station, we have built hundreds of stations, many of them with more modern appearance, larger volume, and more complex spatial structure. But also because of this, after more than half a century of baptism of the Beijing Station, the unique temperament of independence is more precious, more different, and more attractive. For she was born in a particular period of history and infused with all the talent, enthusiasm and hope of that period, which is unlikely to be found in any station after her.

After the transformation, Beijing Railway Station will be like a passenger packing up, with the most full attitude, with the hope for the future, and set out again.
