Below the station's large split-level kiosk encircled by a bus terminus, the platforms, dug in tunnel, extend outward from a very deep cut-and-cover volume, which provides a visual link from the top of the escalators down to the transept.

View of the platform

The walls of this space and of most of the station are clad in ridged white concrete panels. These expanses are brightened by a consistent and attractive colour scheme of autumn colours in the vividly-coloured polymer concrete benches at platform level and in stripes in the ceramic tile flooring.

They are also to be found in the station's main set of artworks, two murals by the station's architect André Léonard. They are made up of polymer cement disks that decorate the walls of the control zone and lower mezzanine. The successive displacement of the clefts in the large circles creates an impression of movement and direction along the passengers' route.
