The project attempts to create a complete form of art ‘exhibits’ placed in the urban scale to recall to local cultural memory and the large-scale new city center. We hope that it will be a ‘catalyst’ on the spot instead of an ‘isolated island’, and become a bridge connecting urban space and historical memory. The design traces back to the regional culture in an abstract way, and uses a powerful and complete form to fit the planning structure.
