In order to fashion a harmonized and appealing the Hakata exit station square, the method of "a public design based on systematization and characterization”, a design founded on the diverse relations between elements that form the plaza, was employed. The station square was given a simple and easy-to-comprehend ordered design that harmonized facilities and fixtures such as lightings, with the station building and surrounding landscape. The square’s outdoor life stage such as pavement was given a characteristic style that expressed Hakata and Fukuoka.
