潇洒桐庐

This is a bus shelter named “comely bus shelter” designed by the Longxi design team for Tonglu, Hangzhou. They were inspired by the former four lines of “Ten Songs for Comely Tonglu” by Fan Zhongyan during conception, which mainly depicts a travelling scene. When travelling in Tonglu, the poet was captivated by the misty Wulong Mountain, the gorgeous scenes of which have calmed him down. His moods seem to be one with the white clouds, dashing and ethereal. The poet expressed his delight and easiness by the tenderness and brightness of mountains and clouds.

To restore this tenderness and brightness, the design team selected inky steel as the framework of the bus shelter and a large number of glass components are utilized to erect the transparent and bright bus shelter. To vitalize it, the design team print images of local landscapes which reduce the monotony of traditional bus shelters and further embody the cultural deposits and aesthetics. This design can serve as an approach for tourists to learn something about Tonglu, and an advertisement to showcase the distinctive landscape culture of this most beautiful county in China.
