The space is inspired by "Athena", the goddess of wisdom, war and art in Greek mythology.
As the visual center, the white rock mass connects two layers as a whole while the curve of the second floor divides the space into a well-proportioned space. The frameless handrail and windows maximize the introduction of natural light, which bring about a cool and crystal clear sense of transparency.
Interlaced with the spiral staircase, the golden-curved structure runs through the space in a dramatic way. The milky white steps spin around like a elegant dance troupe, reflecting the glitter of sunlight.
