The entrance and floor mural of the station.

The floor mural and fence art in this station is called "Lucky California" by Pyung Hyunh. It depicts lucky Chinese cherubs flying around Californian Poppies, a symbol of traditional luck and the Californian imagery coming together as one. The floor mural also depicts of two Cherub pilots waving in an atmosphere of airplanes, birds, an flying oranges; this is to show the faces of modern pop culture that doesn't look at things specifically and culturally, but rather as a whole and a new perspective. They also express in a happy way of greetings and farewell to anyone who gets on or off at the station.[2]
