The earthquake damage and the topography of the site shaped the architectural space of the 921 Earthquake Museum. For architect Jay W. Chiu, the guiding principle of the design was "to allow the space to connect the visible scars with the invisible memories."
事件、地景，形塑 921 地震教育園區的建築空間，「以空間連結看得見的軌跡與看不見的記憶」，是建築師邱文傑的設計理念。
