The architects created an underwater world full of fantasy and mobility with white as the basic tone and they designed a blue and pink colored metal mesh that extends down from the ceiling.

The mesh ceiling accent and the floors feature six kinds of hand-drawn sketches that represent the underwater coral, aquatic plants and fish groups.

The design was created by using metal mesh shapes that were cut out with a laser cutter and then attached to the curved white surface of the ceiling.
