The Academician Hall is located on Phoenix Mountain in Meizhou. The designers draw inspiration from the traditional courtyard layout of Chaoshan folk houses, the image of a lotus pond, and the enclosed courtyard layout of Hakka Tulou to create the design concept of "Phoenix Nest." The overall design revolves around the traditional Chaoshan landscape lotus pond, integrating architecture, landscape, interior, and exhibition design. The spatial layout includes various functions such as academic studios, cultural salons, academic symposiums, guest reception areas, art galleries, and Zen halls and tea houses. The streamlined outline and fully open spaces allow the mountain breeze to flow into the interior, enabling the building to naturally blend into the surrounding mountains and forests, fostering harmony between people and architecture.
