Shantou Station, located in Longhu District, Shantou City, Guangdong Province, is the largest comprehensive high-speed rail hub in eastern Guangdong with the most complete transportation integration. Combining high-speed rail, conventional rail, intercity transit, and urban public transport, it operates on a grand scale of 11 platforms and 24 tracks, serving as a pivotal node in China’s coastal high-speed rail network. The architectural design draws inspiration from Chaozhou-Shantou culture, translating the local arcade (qilou) style into columnar forms. The undulating wave-like ceiling mirrors the city’s maritime heritage, evoking the rhythmic flow of ocean tides.
The station’s floodlighting system, guided by the concept “Light Surging with Tides, Shantou Soaring”, merges marine culture with modern technology. Twenty-two exterior “wave columns” feature ascending bands of “coastal white” (5000K) light, simulating tidal rhythms through gradual brightness transitions. This creates a visual metaphor of surging sea currents, embodying the “luminous tidal movement” design highlight. An innovative “light-display traffic” interactive system converts real-time passenger flow data into facade color shifts: when hourly passenger volume exceeds 10,000, the “ceramic-inlay orange” (inspired by Shantou’s traditional mosaic art) light strips intensify to 50% saturation; at 20,000 passengers, saturation rises to 80%; upon reaching 30,000, full 100% saturation activates. The system employs curtain wall-integrated installation technology, with lighting modules and structural frameworks co-designed. Rigorous prototype testing and on-site spectral calibration ensure harmonious day-night aesthetics.
The intelligent control system integrates DMX512 protocol for dual management of local operations and city-level coordination. Six preset modes include daily operations, energy-saving, tidal rhythm simulation, passenger flow adaptation, and festival celebrations. The rooftop lighting system breaks conventional norms by combining low-power floodlights to craft a 360-degree nightscape visible from ground to aerial views, solidifying the station’s identity as Shantou’s iconic gateway day and night.
