Firstly, I think this design shows a good example that how landscape combine with architecture, no matter the functionality of each material and forms. The designer used the cruve element to show this space. It's not only try to active this space, but also compared and balanced the shape with the building.
Also, from their introduction, I found they choosed the local materials to reach the cost-effective priniciple which is really good, because they are not only satisfied the different needs, but also adjusted to local conditions. For example: the building materials, the paving stones, local trees, shrubs......
Thirdly, because of Pearl River Beer Factory located opposite the Haixinsha Island, where the Asian Games Commencement Ceremony took place, so for the preparation of Asian Games, the beauty landscapes was needed for the sides of the Pearl River. Then they create this beautiful landscape public space for activity within the city. Moreover, because of this beautiful landscape and the elegant architecture here, so I think it could be another landmark in Guangzhou. Also, the Pearl River Delta is one of the important industrial development district, so I think the designer created an alternative activity space for the public and future commercial activities.
