I totally agree with the last comment, moreover architects should emphasize space quality related to human habitation above anything else. Certain level of comfort, visual and thermal efficiencies as such should be a premise. (Filling up remnant space with tables is not an option) perhaps they need to go back to school, comprehend SCALE before anything else, so to be able to acknowledge if their project is pertinent or not.
It´s sad to see that most of these young promising architecture firms involved in these huge project regard as the most important issue being ‘avant- garde’ making sculptural pieces instead of having actually some humane architecture.
I love cities, apartment buildings, public transport and personally find the suburbs boring, not a bit avant-garde, a joke on sustainability, pointless.
Architecture´s (and the art´s in a broader sense) greatest enemy is its search for conceptual abstraction above all, alienating it from the rest of the physical world including humanity. Abstraction, esthetics and reasonable habitation are neither opposed nor dissimilar. We need pertinence.

lol i hadn’t realizes there’s another table behind the stairs…. aweful… the garage is the biggest joke it’s a 1000,sqm house.. a wealthy person is going to buy it.. but all he can park is a car and a smart or a vochito… lol

did you take a look at the beautiful double height view the living room has????

i’m ashamed that an office like that is representing Mexico… nice to know they’re not the only ones though.

Productora is (or used to be) one of the most innovative offices in Mexico.. but… i just don’t know what happened to them here… is the most horrible project in ORDOS so far.. just look at the garage.. i just can’t imagine a young lady coming out of there… plus the bedrooms lack of any conection interior-exterior all you can see from a window is a big wall… and if you turn your head a little bit you can look at each others bathroom… a pool table in the middle of a corridor??? come on.. give me a break!!! same happens to the table…

The worse part is that the whole house (the complete form) is not that interesting… it’s just a stabbed square… how come they dare to present something like this in such a mediated project???.

WHY SOME OF THE “COOL” ARCHITECTURE VOIDS LOGIC?, I MEAN WHY TO SUFFER TO PARK YOUR CAR? DO WE BREATH ON CONCEPTS?

speaking of haircuts, I think mine is vaguely more interesting than 85% of the Ordos competition submissions.

Hey Bateman, stop being such a duffus. Don’t you have to return some video tapes or something?

I wouldn’t visit a Wimpey Homes estate, so why would I visit this?

Individually a lot of these projects look great. its just a shame they are going into the Wimpy Homes masterplan of the Ordos project. Honestly, this place is going to look terrible.
