CONTEXT:
Mass media and architectural tourism are as much of the project‟s context as the urbanization of the Ordos plains of Inner Mongolia.
CONCEPT: The building responds to the intersection of these economies by articulating a
variable relation between private and public or “privacy and publicity.” The building alternates between a state of radical interiority providing an introvert
retreat that gives away no image; and a state of total exhibitionism that publicly exposes its interiors.
A series of pathways and spaces are carved out of a slanted platform of artificial landscape. A central crack, traversing the site from north to south, branches off to smaller paths and private courts. Each court serves a function: sleeping, eating, living, entertaining, working. All windows are opened to these outdoor „interior‟ spaces.
VISIBILITY: In the context of the neighborhood‟s condition of over-exposure and hyper-
visibility we propose a non-object. The radical interiority of the building folds inwards all views. The building is visible only from within the crack-an open house
from the inside.
PUBLICITY:
On occasions of a visit/exhibition, the crack becomes a public walkway through which the building can be experienced.
FLOW: Because of the building‟s unique location on the perimeter of the neighborhood the
crack/path would connect the museum area with the rest of the buildings on site.
PUBLICITY:
PRIVACY:
The internal functions of the house are organized as a loop wrapped around the public path. Movement between the two sides of the crack
would pass either over or under it.
