The visible structure of the station is of a tear-drop shaped dome surrounded in parklands. Beneath the futuristic ground floor waiting hall's domed structure, the majority of the station is located in five underground levels. The first and second basement levels allows access to buses, taxis, public parking and ticket hall for the Tianjin Metro. The third basement level houses the Tianjin Metro B2 and B3 lines. The fourth basement level contains the platforms and access to the future Tianjin Metro Z1 line. The lowest Fifth Basement Level has three island platforms serving six tracks as the terminus of the Beijing–Tianjin intercity railway.

The ceiling, also the world's first single layer steel shell structure, looks like a delicate painting floating in the air. ETFE film was chosen for roofing and façade construction to improve structural integrity and save energy, with the roofing consisting of three-layered ETFE cushions.

Binhai railway station will be the northern terminus of the Tianjin–Weifang–Yantai high-speed railway, turning the current terminus station into a through station.[5][6]
