The design concept is “Leading Stream", based on the characteristics of the site, which is blessed with water transport and has developed mainly through the metal casting industry, as well as the brand's forward-looking image. The three-layered gradient façade of generously curved metal materials expresses a sense of speed and dynamism. The smooth curved ceiling envelops the interior space, which is designed with "meandering, stagnation, shimmering, blurring, reflection and transparency". The striking lighting design brings a sense of anticipation for the future to the cluttered streetscape.
