PEOPLE: - Yoshikazu Hara. Structural Artist for Breath of the Wild. QUOTE: Hara: [Breath of the Wild] was designed so that you can see your ultimate destination from almost anywhere on the map, so the castle's silhouette had to draw the eye to its location and also convey that it is possessed by Malice. I designed both the exterior of the castle as well as the Malice with this in mind. … The Great Plateau is paired with the castle as if one were male and the other were female. For example, when looking at the bird statues, the plateau's statues have a feminine, supple silhouette, while the castle's statues are more masculine.

PEOPLE: - Yoshikazu Hara. Structural Artist for Breath of the Wild. QUOTE: Hara: I created [Zelda’s study in Breath of the Wild] out of the concept that, since it is in a separate tower, it was originally intended to be used as a lookout station but was not in use at the time. Also, since it was far from her father's watchful eye, Princess Zelda used this room for her research. She struggled to produce results on her own, so I expressed her isolation within the castle through this lone tower. However, I think that it will be apparent to players from the remains of the room that she was prolific in her research and continued to fight, looking for ways to help and not giving in to the circumstances.
