Concept
- A container that holds everything with the simplicity of the single line that conforms an ellipse.
- A clear object that shows the mass of the program as a statement of ownership to the site.
- A free standing structure contained in a continuous form that allows free flow of the open space.
- A monolith that clearly suggest the urban relevance of this lot as an entrance to the 100 Villa Compound.
- A surface, uninterrupted, created by grey brick and curved glass that strongly defines the interior from the exterior while it projects framed reflections of the surroundings.
- A cloister that opens strategically, looking for the right amount of sun, light and views.
- A central gathering of service areas as well as vertical circulations.
- A continues space to the inside that rhythmically compresses and opens.
- A single window and door with a height of 2.00m with three sizes that have the same proportion as the three sides of a brick (1 x 2, 4 x 2, 8 x 2)
- A single proportion for the pieces.
- A unity repeated through space and time.

It is definately another kind of “burg” architecture. Why the site need a Castle in desert? what is the design perception to its environment and surroundings? In addition,what is the meaning of the final concept image? Where does it come from, looks like the 17-18th Century European rural life…If this is the truth, I feel sorry for the client.
xing прав – черти что.
высосано из пальца :)
i must be crazy , but i really like this house, the interiors remind me of the architecture of jose Cruz in the adolfo Ibañez( santiago Chile). I still think that the aravena´s project it´s the best project shown here of the ordos urbanization.
Finally a project to stair!
great project
