The interaction between the old and new structures fosters a dialogue and facilitates the transmission of heritage. Deep within the depths of the "Eye of the Earth," three laser projections emanate towards the sky and cosmos, akin to beams of ancient civilization conversing with the celestial realm, pondering the origins or ultimate destination of human civilization.
The interior design deliberately incorporates oversized artistic concrete panels, comprising a grand total of 1,696 hyperbolic panels that emulate the texture of an archaeological site. Originating from the earth and transforming into artful concrete, these panels effectively blur the boundaries between sky and land, enveloping individuals in a space where such distinctions fade away. The grand curves and expansive wall panels create a sense of insignificance in individuals, juxtaposing their smallness against the vast expanse of the space.
The designer metaphorically raises a section of the "civilization mask," offering a glimpse into the historical legacy of ancient Shu while bringing it to life in a tangible form.
