The building is well known for its striking architecture. Its outer structure consists of an interwoven pattern of beams. Red beams run north–south and black beams run east–west.[5] The design is said to be inspired by Chopsticks and the traditional Chinese meal of Hot pot.[6] The design has also been compared to the white fig tree, which is common in Chongqing.[7]
