This photo shows the building like wings unfolding—poetic and bold. Sunlight glides along flowing curves, as reflections ripple across water, echoing the calm lotus pond. It’s a graceful gesture skyward, a quiet dialogue of light, wind, and form.

Photographed by Oliver Deng, the Zhuhai Jinwan Civic Art Centre by Zaha Hadid Architects has become a striking landmark in the Greater Bay Area. Inspired by flying seabirds, its fluid design connects a theatre, multipurpose hall, art museum, and science centre around a central plaza. The curving forms and reflective materials blend with surrounding water and greenery, creating a dynamic and futuristic urban core. Viewed from above, the building resembles a pair of wings in flight, symbolizing the city's rise and drawing all eyes to its center.
