Wonderland is a large smart TOD community jointly developed by Vanke Hangzhou and Hangzhou Metro Group. Centered on the theme of "sky, intelligence and future", it spans a total area of about 1.34 million square meters. The Entrance A Passage at Wuchang Station of Metro Line 5 is linked with Wonderland community. It is the first stop where visitors arrives at the community, and hence defines its first impression.

Taking "a sense of future, interactivity and ecosystem" as key words, and adopting a leisurely, natural aesthetic ambience as well as a clear and efficient circulation strategy, the design team presents a new spatial mode that combines multiple functions including urban metro transportation, commercial street and signage system.

The use of a large area of soft wood hue and warm light at the metro station passage highlights the relaxing, natural atmosphere of the Wonderland community that connects with the station. At the end of the passage, a beam of circular light from the sky falls down, showing a game between sunshine and tree shadows. Based on the existing architectural structures, the round skylight is presented in the form of hourglass, with its side surfaces wrapped by mirrored metal featuring a sense of technology.

Besides, the circular light strip echoing UFO and the geometrical elements fitting into the space further strength the futurist feeling of the skylight area. Beneath the skylight are circular metallic seating, a customized futuristic lighting fixture, and an iconic robot art installation that represents Wonderland, together forming a scene that integrates nature, technology and future.

The commercial area and the transportation passage are subtly demarcated through different paving materials, which also create a relaxing, fashionable and open commercial environment while ensuring efficient mobility at the metro station passage. To better guide the human flow, TOMO Design created an efficient, clear signage system formed by a series of unified elements. At the entrance of the metro station passage, capsule-like light boxes as well as luminous arrow symbols form striking wayfinding signs.

The light boxes featuring a dot matrix not only convey information, but also generate a sense of technology and future. Light strips inserted under the handrails help guide people's movement. The varied paving material textures also indicate the circulation route. The prefabricated tactile pavings for the visually impaired are combined with the curves on the floor. The large signage at the metro station's ticket gate area employs dot matrix elements. The rich and meticulous details clearly and efficiently guide the human flow in the metro station. Through fusing nature with technology, TOMO Design created a unique, efficient and convenient metro hub space.
