Though this project, Immersion, I intended to immerse people into the music, arts and history, and nature. The buildings will be immersed into the quarry environment and landform. The main stage, inserted into the ground, is conceived to provide immersive music experience and the music museum for immersive visit experience and workshop. The museum buildings are embedded in the rock and embraced by the mountains.

To create an immersive experience, the music museum exhibits the collection of traditional musical instruments and documentary, about history and musician's performance. The workshop, where artists can make their own musical instruments, also accommodated musicians, artists and architects for short stays. Under the guidance of the building and exhibitions, people will go down to the bottom of the quarry, which is an open space for more outdoor activities. The revitalised park for sightseeing, food and boating continues the same architectural languages and embraced by nature. People can get closer to the water or join the events on this piazza. The main stage is inserted into the ground and consists of an internal acoustic shell and an external walkable one made of concrete. The backstage fits between two surfaces to maintain the integrity of the entire building. LED strip lighting, spotlights and parabolic reflectors create a warm and bright lighting effects for the symphony. Hologram projector, laser beam and spotlights create holograms floating in the air and create an immersive music experience.
