What are the symbolic meanings of the Water Cube and the Bird's Nest?

The Bird's Nest is the main stadium of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Its shape is like a "nest" that breeds life. It is like a cradle, bearing the hope of mankind for the future. The designer exposed the structure frankly, thus naturally forming the appearance of the building.

The "Bird's Nest" enclosed the stadium with a giant steel wire mesh covering 96,5438+0,000 people. Sightseeing stairs naturally become an extension of the building; When the column disappears, the net has no clear direction like a branch under the uniform force, which makes people feel that every seat is equal.

Just like going back to the forest; Filter sunlight into diffuse light. Air movies make the stadium bid farewell to the shadow of the sun; The whole terrain rises by 4 meters, and the interior is used as an auxiliary facility, which avoids huge excavation investment.

China people of Water Cube believe that if we don't follow the rules, we can achieve overall harmony and unity. In the traditional culture of China, the design concept of "Tianyuan Square" gave birth to "Water Cube", which echoed with the circular "Bird's Nest" National Stadium and brought out the best in each other.
