The Opinions on Supporting Shenzhen in Building a Pilot Demonstration Area of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics issued by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and State Council on August 18, 2019 proposes to support Shenzhen in planning and constructing a group of major public cultural facilities and encourage state-level museums to establish branches in Shenzhen.

The Plan of Shenzhen Municipality to Accelerate the Construction of Major Cultural and Sports Facilities issued by the Shenzhen Municipal People’s Government lists the Guoshen Museum among the “New Top Ten Cultural Facilities” of Shenzhen City.

The Guoshen Museum will be an integrity of functionality, science and technology, and architectural art. It will become an important place to enhance the spiritual and civilized life of citizens and a model to lead the public cultural facilities in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and even the world, which will be of great significance in the world architectural history.

The Guoshen Museum shall reflect the museum’s cultural connotations and ambience and show the architectural style for cultural confidence in Chinese culture elements. The Guoshen Museum shall be a modern landmark building with originality that reflects unique coastal building characteristics. At the same time, it shall explore the application of new process, new technology and new materials.
