Zhuhai Grand Theatre is like a large, small and two groups of "shells" with semi transparent effect in the daytime and crystal like moonlight at night. "The pearl is born in the shell, the shell is born in the sea" is the interpretation of Zhuhai's urban spiritual characteristics of historical and cultural precipitation, which is the first to embrace the marine civilization in mainland China.

The design scheme of Zhuhai Grand Theatre not only comes from the unique marine species of "Sun Moon shell", but also refines the image of "shell" and further expresses the significance of space with modern building materials and technologies. One large, one small and two groups of "shells" form the overall image of the opera house, which can be seen in quite a wide area of the city "standing on the sea". Taking the beautiful fin of fish as the creative inspiration, the surrounding landscape design not only highlights the echo with the shell, but also further strengthens the characteristics of the coastal architecture.
