“Kun Opera”, formerly known as “Kunshan Opera”, is an ancient Chinese opera genre — one of the oldest forms of traditional Chinese performance and a true treasure of the nation’s cultural and artistic heritage. Inspired by Kun Opera, the design concept allows the space to echo its poetic narrative, using the idea of a chance encounter with this art form during a journey as a guiding thread.
