Comments from Byrne Miao

The layout of this work is full of visual impact. When the viewers look at this work, they will be deeply athached by it. Thank you for bringing such an amazing work for us.

Comments from Stu Worrall

Infinity point designs work really well when the central area is brighter to draw your eye in which the designer has included here. The central ripple in the surface also helps to increase interest in the middle. The planting of the Monte Carlo trailing over the wood works really well and gives an ancient feel to the aquascape.

Comments from Diego Marinelli

Great artistic impact for this layout capable of expressing great emotion. The large woods impact and evelop the observer and accompany their gaze towards the infinite depth in a unique natural environment. Congratulations

First of all the condition of the aquatic plants is very healthy. The golden ratio point with the moving reflection gave a very interesting impact to this aquascaper work. From my point of view it lacked an escape area. The sides were a little heavy. Also, it is a monochrome aquarium that could have more elements to give it greater prominence. But there is no doubt that is a very impressive work!

Comments from Gary Wu

A dynamic hardscape arrangement, the symmetry trunk and "Monte Carlo" seems distribute intentionally, lack of nature feels.

Comments from Frederic Fuss

Straight tree trunks running towards the viewer in an almost intimidating way. This spectacular design looks menacing with its overhead structures and pronounced shadows. Personally, I had a problem with the artificial character of this layout. These trunks strike me as more like a rotting railway bridge that nature is gradually overgrowing than a purely natural setting. The design is very central, the vanishing point seems to be below the gap. The focus points are cleverly assigned so that despite the central design, there is no pure monotony. I think it would have been easy to hide the top edges of the side window given the forward-looking structures. The color is very strongly dominated by green. Yellow and orange are almost entirely absent. The very uniform planting is loosened up here and there. I really liked the Microsorum and the hanging growing HCC. The impression of age and gloom was reinforced a little. The black neons go well with the gloomy tone, a shrill color would have been completely inappropriate here. Their swimming direction should ideally have been along the prominent vectors. A small swarm in the direction of the fissure would have been really nice to emphasize the three-dimensionality. All in all, a very exciting work that I really liked despite its strangeness!
