The overall space design of the mall is designed by a Japanese team, mainly composed of wood and planting.[5] In the atrium of the entrance hall of Minzu Road, natural light is introduced into the building by a 100 m (330 ft)-long arch-shaped transparent lighting cover; beside the escalator, there are theater-style seating seats and a 15 m (49 ft)-high large book wall with a total of 40,000 books for reading in the mall.[6] The surrounding trails and green plants extend all the way to the outdoor hiking area.[7]
