Working with Atelier Ten, ZHA, and Architects 61 It aims for BCA Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy certification, adding design principles and energy performance strategies. Highly efficient space conditioning with a smart building management system aims to reduce energy consumption by more than 40%, with the help of photovoltaics and insulating roof gardens. The outdoor areas will be protected from sunlight, but will be exposed to prevailing natural ventilation and controlled daylight. Ultimately, water management and landscaping are designed to preserve and restore native plant populations.

Zha He also revealed a design master plan Give Odyssey Fair 2030 in Ukraine.
