This creature-like building will be an [interactive opera house](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-goes-around-bandstand) that will act like a performance itself with its [exposed structure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-landscape), moving projection screens and rotating floor in the auditorium. Jie Shen's design will definitely attract more visitors to such a serious place, making individuals happy to participate in this interactive opera experience.
