The master concept is the using of traditional Balinese rule to divide land into different zones. They are Utamaning Utama, Madnyaning Utama, and Nistaning Utama. They have different meanings and symbols, such as:

Nistaning Utama is a symbol of body and materialization of human beings. It symbolizes the sin and evil of the human beings. However, evil is a part of human beings and everyone have to always create the harmonious with the goodness.
In the design process, that symbol has transformed into a reflecting pool with radial orientation. Reflecting pool means everyone must evaluate their attitude and the way of life every time. The radial orientation means 8 wind direction and 8 God in Hindunese. They always maintain the harmonization of the world with their special power.

Utamaning Utama is a symbol of spirit of human beings because this zone is the most sacred place. It shows the holiness and purity.
In the design process this zone has transformed into space of silence. Space of silence is place for people to feel the message of peace, and we should give to others just like water that never stops flow.

Madyaning Utama is transition zone between Utamaning Utama and Nistaning Utama. It symbolize of soul of the human beings. To be a good human being we have to keep our soul into spirit and holiness.
In the design process, this zone has transformed into place for sound of peace. This area is connecting from the Nusa Gede Island to the other island. In this area will be placed some sculpture, signage, and landscape furniture that containing message of peace from some wise people who bring message of peace to the world.
