Set in a corner of a warehouse faraway from the entrance of Lang Yuan, the irregular layout and architecture threw many challenges at the ambitious store owner.

"It leaves many difficulties to design the space," Pan says. "But the nearby forest and the flowing river out front gives us much inspiration. We want to create a public space interdependent with nature."

It may feel cozy when ordering a cup of coffee and lying on the sofa facing the river, but Pan has more expectations for this space. A visual design studio is based on the second floor. Pan sees Deck as a place to promote an eco-friendly lifestyle.

"The atmosphere of Lang Yuan Station is rich in culture," he says. "Such an urban renewal program can leave much room for design and imagination."

It is hard to say when Lang Yuan Station became a culture park. Since the renewal program started, the park slowly emerged. Even today, when wandering around the area, people will see a large construction site.
