Symbols and Celebrations: Architectural Poetry Connects China's Precious Stone and its Historic Waterway

05/06/2025

The sinuous, translucent form of the Yoohoo Museum in Hangzhou takes inspiration from the 2500-year old Grand Canal and Jade - China's iconic precious stone - which symbolises purity, connection and reverence. A magical project that addresses heaven and earth, and combines two major traditional elements of Chinese culture.
