Yuxiu Art Museum has been praised for its “refined construction and poetic sense of space.” The main building utilizes elevation differences, combining artificial corridors with natural vegetation, along with spatial interplay and light-shadow variations, creating a dialogue between visitors and the landscape architecture.
