RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Moreover, the whole space presents tidy and lively style; the texture with modern style. The soft carpet reduces huge interference from noise. The plain ceiling is painted in black, a method which efficiently elevates the deep imagination when people look upward. The rearrangement of the pipelines also brings the fun with plural vertical and horizontal structures.

The design makes the reception area an independence cluster, and outline a metaphor that presents the freedom of media does not act without limits. The moral and laws are the regulations to media people. In the meantime, the regulations also remind the mass communicator about the required introspection, self-discipline, inheritance, and innovation. The other side is a large meeting room. On the both sides of the large meeting room in glass compartment and reception area, there are the ideas from the “ancient map” and “modern world map,” which present the missions of everlasting history and the ambitions of globalization. In addition to a brand new medium which presents the themes of diversity and the bright prospects, it also reminds the executive officers and customers that the NTD is a global media platform endowed with historical wisdoms and demonstrates excellent tensions of time and space in four dimensions.
