I think making walls in all sorts of directions to create dynamic views, spaces and paths is perfectly justified. Id love to explore this place and would enjoy living there.

BUT, the way they derived the plan from a photo is laughable. Eisenman did the same thing for cite de culture in santiago. He copied the old town map and pasted it onto his building for circulation. Im not convinced by that but at least he didnt try to justify it with ‘being contextual’

Personally, the interesting part is not how the form looks like, but rather, how was the form derived by.

Did it merely mapped out the contours of the terrain only? or was there more to it.

If it was really built, has consideration of each wall and where it visually looks towards been considered?

As there were no perspective of the space being shown, its hard to tell if the architect has touched on the above mentioned.

So there are alot of unanswered questions just on this posting alone, but they may already been touched on which I sincerely hoped each responsible architect would have done.

Lastly, if its really built, the height of each wall will determine the dynamism, though it may be “slanted here and there” it does not mean it is hard to live in the space as most presume just by looking at the overall layout. Rather, if you stand within the space, you may find that it could be quite interesting and infact, quite “wide” a space compared to the traditional cube rooms. So we need to really see the inside, being able to visualize standing in it will we then see the real beauty of it.

Overall, I feel that its a good attempt and good effort. Something was created, just that more needs to be shown.

or walking on the streets of Morocco.

the girl who design the moon…….*loooooooooool* yes next time, design the moon……because she not gonna worry *lol*

the question at the beginnig has nothign to do with project itself…….

next time i am doing a project i am not gonna worry annymore about the form or function, i will just google map the city or the country, or maybe i will try with the moon, i think i may find more interesting landscapes there …hehehehe…..

To start from “what to build in China” is totally problematic. The fact is Chinese cities are in a huge divergent gruop with many difference to each other.

Maybe the design should start with the environment of Ordos, Mongolia. This sandy desert environment calls for vernacular architecture and tons of consideration on its unique climate and geological stuff.

let us keep moving to the next and next.
