Public Artwork

The theme for the station is "Dancing in the Wind", part of a common theme of egrets for the Luzhou Branch Line. The main lobby features a dome skylight with a piece of public art resembling a dancing egret feather.{{cite news|url=http://www.merit-times.com.tw/NewsPage.aspx?Unid=191227|title=「回憶蘆洲」 白鷺鷥飛進捷運|publisher=人間福報|date=2010-07-13|accessdate=2010-07-13}} Natural light from above makes the feather art appear light and soft.
