The architectural space plane of Ezhou Seazen Wuyue Plaza is inspired by a phoenix that is about to fly, which extends the concept of phoenix and water as a story. Five themed spaces namely, Wave Light, Hanging Edge, Floating Island Residence, Misty Rain Time, and Rippling Bank are extracted to continue urban culture and create a scene-rich, multi-dimensional commercial complex.

The main atrium of the project is designed with the meaning of "Floating Island Residence". Ezhou is named after the legendary Phoenix thus the design uses wood grain laminate boards to express the shape of the floating island in the river, and curves to express the momentum of the phoenix's wings while enhancing the spatial momentum and color richness and guides the visual focus of the flow of people to the higher floors to achieve the effect of drainage. In the secondary atrium "During Misty and Rain", a water curtain with a pull-line is set as the focus of the whole space as the introduction of flowing water increases the sense of activity of the space and echoes the main atrium.

The design explores the visitors’ experience, and lays out the long street and other attached spaces through the method of creating multiple highlights. The Long Street adopts the design language of "Phoenix sweeping across the water creating waves", through the curved shape combined with wood grain laminate board and white composite metal plate interspersed with fiber optic lights to express the ups and downs of the water surface. The main entrance space is unified with the material of the long street to create the effect of wave light, and through the infinite reflector, people can think of the reflected ripples to form a landscape of water and sky, when entering the mall. To form the first image of the space tone, the two sides of the entrance are combined with shapes to add advertising light boxes to enhance operations. Value and the introduction of basketball courts, coffee and book bars further enriches the space experience and effectively attracts the customers.
