The Chinese contributed the idea of the cube, which is central to Chinese culture and symbology; and the Australians came up with the notion of cladding the entire building in “bubbles,” the two concepts acting in concert to envision a building that, with the help of 1000s of strategically placed LEDs, would resemble an enormous cube of uncontained water, miraculously stilled smack in the center of Beijing.
