For example, Zhengzhou Grand Theater is inspired by the "Yellow River" and "sailboat". The architectural appearance is based on the design concept of "The shadows of the sailboats on the Yellow River,are the boats of art". The whole building volume is surrounded by six giant ships' sails that are spread out in the wind, and sits on the platform with the momentum of the rainbow.

Another example is the new site of Henan Science and Technology Museum. The inspiration for the design has been taken from the confluence of the Yellow River and Luoshui River. The architectural form is like the natural shape formed by the natural intersection of the Yellow River and the Luoshui River.
